Patty Jo was born on January 18, 1935 in Madison, Indiana to Gayle and Gladys Wallace weighing only 1 pound ¾ ounces. Patty Jo often reminisced about sleeping in a shoe box because of her small size at birth. Patty Jo’s heart never matched the small size that she entered this world with. She loved her family and friends dearly and always cared for others until such time that she was unable. Her children and grandchildren will always remember her warm smile and her willingness to give to others in need. Patty Jo also enjoyed cooking, especially known for her fried chicken and Swiss Steak, entertaining friends and family, playing cards, and volunteering in her community.

Visitation is scheduled on May 3rd, 2019 at Sylvan Abby in Clearwater, Florida from 11:00- 12:30pm with burial to follow. A reception will be held following services at the home of the family. Please contact Lisa Grajales or Sylvan Abby for additional details. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Patty Jo's life. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Haven Hospice at https://portal.floridahospices.org/index.cfm?pg=makeADonation. The family would like to thank the Terrace of Jacksonville, Haven Hospice, Sylvan Abby and all friends and family for their loving care and support during this difficult time.
