Patsy Sue Garner

Patsy Sue Garner, affectionately known as “Pat,” 67, passed away peacefully and comfortably on Tuesday, November 10, 2026.

Born on August 21, 1959, in Heber Springs, Arkansas, Pat spent her life calling several Arkansas communities home, including Drasco, Batesville, Pangburn, and Cabot. Throughout her life, she touched the hearts of many with her kindness, generosity, and unwavering love for those around her.

Pat was a woman of many talents, interests, and passions. She loved dancing, listening to music, playing the piano, writing poetry, cooking, crocheting, crafting, gardening, and decorating. She found joy in the simple pleasures of life, whether it was reading a good book, painting her nails, lighting her favorite candles, or spending an evening stargazing. She also had an adventurous spirit and enjoyed trips to the beach, swimming, parasailing, shopping, and visiting the casino.

Above all, Pat cherished time spent with her family and friends, especially her beloved grandchildren. She had a giving heart and found great happiness in helping others, often putting their needs before her own. She was someone who loved people for who they were, never hesitating to offer kindness, acceptance, and compassion. Her caring nature and willingness to look after those she loved will forever be remembered by those fortunate enough to have known her.

Pat also had a deep knowledge of the Bible and a love for the Lord. Her faith was an important part of her life, and the love she shared with others reflected the goodness of her heart.

She is survived by her three children, Kasey Garrett of Batesville, Arkansas; Brittany Pendergrass (Mindy) of Ward, Arkansas; and Tyler Mosley (Mitchell) of Little Rock, Arkansas; three grandchildren, Kolten Garrett, Kent Garrett, and Jet Tucker; and one great-grandchild, Levi Garrett. She is also survived by her two brothers, J.C. Thomas of Drasco, Arkansas, and Doyle Thomas (Beverly) of Concord, Arkansas, along with a host of extended family members and dear friends.

Pat was preceded in death by her parents, Nellie Watkins and Leroy “Dick” Thomas; her siblings, Barbara Hixon, Kathy Duncan, Linda Clark, Lonnie Thomas, and Donnie Thomas; as well as her beloved dog, Cohen, who held a special place in her heart.

Pat will be remembered for her generous spirit, her love of life, and the countless ways she made others feel loved and accepted. Though she will be deeply missed, the memories she created and the love she gave so freely will live on in the hearts of her family and friends forever.

A private memorial service will be held for immediate family only.
