Copied in part from her obituary: Patty Ann House GarPatty Garrisonrison, age 83 of Manchester, Kentucky, departed this life on Wednesday, January 25, 2023, at her home. Patty was born April 1, 1939. Patty was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. She will forever be remembered by the good food and fun times served up at her longtime local restaurant, Patty’s Place. She loved and cherished each customer throughout the years and considered them to be part of her forever “Patty’s Place” family. Patty loved the time spent with her Pins N Needles quilting family and was a member of the local Red Hat Society and Manchester Baptist Church. Patty and her clan, aka the Golden Girls, always knew how to have a good time wherever the road led them. Those left to cherish her memory include our Homemaker member Laura Garrison. In lieu of flowers, the family is asking for donations to be given to the Clay County Cancer Coalition in her honor. 

Please take a moment in honor of her birthday on April 1st.

The message is copied from a post on her page:

Beloved friends and family, it is with a sad heart that I am sharing the passing of Naomi ConawayNaomi Conaway. She passed away on the morning of March 17, 2023. She was surrounded by her family and very peacefully went to meet her Heavenly Father. She loved and was loved by so many people in her life. Please include all of those loved ones in your prayers.

We would love to include hand drawn pictures from the special children in her life. Pictures can be brought to the services and placed in her casket.

Donations in lieu of flowers can be made to the Tiffany Fahringer-Underwood Scholarship Fund at the University of Kentucky CHS. Please include the scholarship name in the memo. Tiffany was a beloved member of the Conaway extended family who died suddenly in December, 2021.

Please take a moment in honor of her birthday on April 3rd.
