Patsy was born December 25, 1938 in Hillsboro, the daughter of Shook and Loma (Sullins) Harris. She attended schools in the West area. On January 23, 1954 she was united in marriage to Byron F. Williams Sr. in West. Byron preceded her in death on December 31, 2013. Patsy was a faithful member of Tokio Baptist Church where she was active for many years. She worked as a line supervisor for Harris Electric in Itasca for over 25 years until her retirement. Patsy and her daughter, Ada then owned and operated Little Shepherd Daycare in West for over 10 years. She enjoyed all the children she took care of and was affectionately known to them as "pappy daycare". Her favorite things to do were taking care of her dog Annie, shopping, and hunting for bargains. She loved cooking fried chicken, dressing, and baking desserts for her family, especially her grandchildren. Patsy was known to make a heavenly chocolate pie leaving everyone fighting for it. Her family will surely miss all these special times with her.
