Patsy Earline Havens

Patsy Earline Havens, 75, passed away peacefully in her sleep on February 18, 2022, in Liberal, KS after a long battle with kidney disease. Patsy was the first child born to Freddie Lawrence Hutson and Ollie Ruth (Fowler) on January 2, 1947 in Borger, Texas. She attended schools in Lelia Lake and Clarendon and lived most of her life in Donley County.

Patsy married the love of her life, Milton Lee Havens, on June 5, 1964, in Clarendon. They were married just short of 42 years before Milton passed away in May of 2005. Three children were born of this union: Preston, Regina, and John.

Patsy loved working alongside Milton in their lawn care business. She had an avid love and knowledge for flowers and old cars. She could identify any older car you would pass on the highway. Patsy worked as a waitress at various restaurants in Clarendon. She was involved in the Red Hat Society and the Rebekah Lodge in her later years, and enjoyed many friendships through those clubs.

Patsy was preceded in death by her parents, Fred and Ruth Hutson, her husband Milton, brother Jimmy Hutson, brother-in-law Gus Havens, sisters-in-law Connie Havens and Lois Hutson, and great-grandson, Rip Maverick Gaillard.
