Patti Townsend


(From Ozark Memorial Park Crematory)

Patricia Joy Townsend, known affectionately as Patti and often referred to as “Tiger,” was born on August 12, 1947, in Stockton, California. She passed away peacefully on September 2, 2024, in Joplin, Missouri, where she had made her home for many years.

Patti graduated from Webb City High School in 1965 and later attended Franklin Tech. Throughout her professional life, she showcased her talents in various roles, serving as an accountant and co-owning a business called “Gifts With A Sassy Attitude” with her best friend Jeannie. Patti was also a dedicated notary, known for her meticulous attention to detail.








An avid cook, she had a particular fondness for shrimp lo mein and white chili, often experimenting with new recipes. She had a taste for the finer things in life, which some described as having “champagne taste on a beer budget.” Her home, a place she cherished and took great pride in, was a reflection of her elegant style.

Patti was deeply committed to her community. She volunteered with the Department of Social Services for the Veterans Affairs division and received a certificate of appreciation for her service with the American Legion #322. Her straightforward nature and willingness to share her opinions endeared her to many, while her loyalty and nurturing spirit allowed her to take many people under her wing throughout her life.

Though she had no children or grandchildren, Patricia is remembered fondly for her generosity and compassion. She leaves behind a legacy of service and style that will not be forgotten. Arrangements are under the direction of Ozark Memorial Park of Joplin, MO.
