Patricia retired from Levi Strauss & Co. in Florence, KY where she worked for 31 years as an Inventory Control Lead.  She loved gardening, reading, cooking and being with her family.  If you were lucky enough to have had one of her meals then you know how gifted she was in this area!  She enjoyed country music, Elvis, and gospel music.  She lived a simple, yet focused life to care for her family, often placing others needs above her own. 

She lived with her daughter, Cindy, and her family in Waxhaw, NC for her last five years of life and enjoyed many activities, trips, outings and celebrations.  She had a quick-witted sense of humor and was adored by all who met her.  She loved her family fiercely and there was no better example of a strong yet graceful woman.
