Patsy loved beach music and dancing of all kinds, including Shag and Two-Step. She loved her family dearly, and would do anything for anyone that needed it. She was also a very outgoing person throughout the years. She was a wonderful mother, wife, grandmother, daughter and sister to her family.
Patsy is survived by her husband, Bob O’Neal; children, Tim Kelly and Kim Ennis (Allen); grandchildren, Nelson Ennis and Brandon Kelly; and numerous cousins, nieces, nephews and lots of great friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, Arthur and Alma Delappe; and ten siblings.
