Patsy JoAnn Helton, 82, passed away December 27, 2016. She was born on May 23, 1934 in Hawley, Texas to father Bernice Warren and mother Alene Warren. She was a beloved mother to Eddie Helton, Elizabeth “Marjay” Helton, and a beloved grandmother to Tanya Shipman, Robert Neifert, Brandi Helton, Josh Helton, Richard Redd, and Alexandria Redd while also being a cherished great-grandmother to Maddison Mubarak and LillyAnn Workman. She was a strong independent woman who welcomed anyone who walked in her door, though she was not afraid to kick you out in a moment’s notice. She was a very loving, hard-working lady who always put others well-being before her own, no matter the circumstance. She is already dearly missed and will forever be remembered through many people’s hearts in the DeSoto community.
