A celebration of life will be conducted at Voss & Sons Funeral Service, 316 N. Chestnut in Seymour from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 20, with funeral to follow at 2 p.m.

Patty was born in Seymour on Nov. 1, 1942, to the late Harvey and Bernice Taylor. She married Kenneth “Eddie” Jones in Seymour on July 22, 1961; he preceded her in death four years ago at age 75.
