Patsy Ann Jenkins, 84, of Graham, North Carolina and formerly of Columbia, KY passed away peacefully at her residence on Friday, May 8, 2026. She was born Patsy Ann Garrison on February 25, 1942 in Columbia, KY, daughter of the late Roy Allen and Rosa Lillian Thomas Garrison.

She lived a full and devoted life filled with love, dedication, and quiet joy. Patsy was a woman of many gifts and passions. After a meaningful career spanning 25 years, she retired from Walmart in Campbellsville, KY, where she was known as a reliable and kindhearted employee. Her days were often filled with the simple pleasures she cherished deeply—assembling jigsaw puzzles, tackling crossword puzzles and word searches, and watching the timeless episodes of The Andy Griffith Show. She formerly attended Milltown Church.
