Patsy Jones Pennington

April 20, 1943 - February 19, 2022

Patsy Jones Pennington Patsy Pennington passed away after unexpected complications from a medical procedure on February 19, 2022. She was 78. She was a wonderful positive influence on everyone with whom she spent time. She was a fabulous country cook, had a remarkable green thumb, and cared very deeply about people knowing right from wrong and choosing to do right. She was also a fierce protector and caretaker of animals. Most of all, she was a loving, giving, nurturing and unselfish mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and aunt -- to those who were her relatives and to friends whom she loved as though they were. Born in Hopeulikit, Georgia on April 20, 1943, Pat leaves behind her sons Mike, Steve (Tina) and Tony Pennington; her grandchildren Jennifer Pennington (Melissa Nichols), Ralls (Caroline), Rabon (Jacob), Jeremy (April), Blake, and Brian Pennington; her great grandchildren Scarlett and Sawyer Wilson, Alexa, Kaitlyn and Taylor Pennington, Aubrey Holland, and Nick Lee (Destiny Trammell); and great-great grandchild Gabe Trammell. Patsy was preceded in death by her first husband A.B. Pennington, her later life partner David Morrison, Sr., her parents Daisy and Tank Jones, her siblings Larry, Tommy, Diane, Billy and Bobby Jones, and her daughter-in-law Peyton Pennington. She is survived by her siblings Nancy Sheffield, Mary Anderson, and Danny and Johnny Jones, too many much-loved cousins, nieces and nephews to name, and her loving canine companion Maggie.
