Patsy enjoyed spending time with her family and serving her community. She worked at the Bank of Colorado and for the City of Durango. She was a faithful member of Durango Christian Church since 1983. Patsy loved the Lord with all her heart, mind, and soul and was a bright light to everyone she encountered. She loved deeply and prayed fervently.
