Patsy worked many, many years as a welder at the Gunite Corporation in Elkhart, but her real love was to travel, road trip and explore exotic foreign destinations. She’d travel to all the neighboring states to visit family and friends, she’d hit Las Vegas and do the casinos there when she got tired of the local casinos here and she’d hit the ground running in the Bahamas, because between all of the sunshine, shopping, beach-hopping and exploring, there just never seemed to be enough vacation time!

Patsy loved her family deeply, and any time spent together, whether it was with her sons, her grandchildren or her siblings, it equated to a perfect day for Patsy. She was a great person to talk to because she always saw you for your potential, and never judged or discouraged anyone who sought her advice. And if you confided in her, you could rest assured that your business remained yours and no one else’s.  Besides traveling, casinos and visiting exotic places, Patsy also had an affinity for exotic cars. Not that she was in a hurry to get anywhere; she just wanted to look good along the way!
