By -
She was born Nov. 10, 1930, in rural Claypool to Paul Wilson and Maggie Rudy Jamison Wilson. Patsy graduated from Warsaw High School in 1949. On July 2, 1950, she married her high school sweetheart Ferrel R. Brallier, who preceded her in death in 1988. She was also preceded in death by three brothers: Richard, James and Philip Wilson.
Patsy graduated from Fort Wayne Beauty College and owned and operated Pattie’s Petite Parlor for over 30 years. After retiring from hairdressing, she moved to Naples, Fla., where she worked in ladies apparel.
During her youth, she was active in the First Baptist Church. She became a member of chancel choir, a path she would follow in every church she attended throughout her life. After marrying, she became an active member of the First United Methodist Church of Warsaw. While living in Naples, she was active in the East Naples UMC. In 2009, she moved back to Indiana to be closer to family and settled into a Robinhood Home at Grace Village. She enjoyed reconnecting with her First Church friends and making new ones at Celebration Church. She lived at Grace Village until moving to Peabody in September of 2022.
Patsy is survived by her two daughters, Deborah (Mike) Musa, Cindy (Jerry) Gackenheimer; three grandsons: Christopher (Melissa Barton) Gackenheimer, Cory (Melonie) Gackenheimer, Matthew (Christine O’Neill) Musa; and six great-grandchildren: Jackson, Eden, Jude and Ansel Gackenheimer and Mitchell and Margaret Musa.
Patsy lived a life of joy and spread it wherever she went. A celebration of her joyful life will be held on April 22, 2023, at 2 p.m. at First United Methodist Church, 179 S. Indiana St., Warsaw with visitation an hour before and a reception in Fellowship hall after the service.
In memory of this special lady, contributions can be made to Celebration Church, 1289 S 250 E., Winona Lake, IN 46590; or First United Methodist Church.
