Patricia loved her family; loved giving and making beautiful quilts to share. She also loved to bake especially coconut pies, and to dance (especially the waltz).

Living in Harjo, Oklahoma, 52 years, finally moving to Edmond and marrying her wonderful husband Jim Ramsey in 2016. They traveled so many places in the RV, saw a million pretty things. They flew to Maine to buy another RV. Life was so good, so much fun, the balloon festival in Albuquerque. They both had dogs named Maggie, who were their constant companions.

Jim’s desire was to give her the very best life he possibly could, and he succeeded, nothing was too good or too expensive for her. He loved for her to shop and buy anything her heart desired. The love and joy they found in each other, was beyond measure, very blessed to find such love at an older age.
