A native of Jeanerette and resident of New Iberia, "Patsy" as she was affectionately known passed away on Friday December 19, 2014 at 9:12am at a local hospital. In her younger days Patsy raised homing pigeons and had an affection for crafts all of her life. She loved painting, drawing, crocheting, and woodworking. That love brought about her small business, the "U Geaux Girl" company. She enjoyed selling her crafts and always had a booth set up at the Lydia Cancer Association Food Fest. Mrs. Patsy also enjoyed cooking, collecting ornamental roosters for her home, and would never miss her Friday card game. As a two time breast cancer survivor, she was an active member of the Lydia Cancer Association. Mrs. Patsy had a personality larger than life. Her family joked that her personality was like her favorite color, "Her passion was purple and her temper was red."
