Patsy Lorraine Ainsworth

Patsy, Mom, Gig, all of which she was called, loved life. She was born April 15, 1937, in Houston, Texas and attended Cypress Fairbanks School. She had many professions, some of which were Operator for Southwestern Bell, Bus Driver for Cy-Fair and Magnolia ISD and Kitchen Manager for her Brothers Bingo Hall. But the profession she loved and cherished most was being a wife and mother. Grandmother and great-grandmother. Her passions were having a clean house, and being able to decorate it, mowing the yard, planting lots of flowers and spending time with her family. Of course, she loved telling our dad (Peep) what he needed to do next. He was her favorite person and when she lost him, she lost a lot of herself. She still had a lot of spunk all the way to the last day she took a breath. On that day she got some of herself back along with dad.

Mom was preceded in death by her husband Lennis Ray Ainsworth; Mother and Father – Tony and Lorraine Bertani; Brothers & Sister-Laws; Tony Bertani, Chuck Bertani and Lottie, Larry Ainsworth, Brian Ainsworth, Gay and Lamar Bush, Buddy Pace, Thelma and Smitty Smith.
