MIDLAND - Patsy Ruth Brookshire, 81, died Aug. 4, 2023. She was born Mar. 12, 1942, to Hazel Hart Kee and Silas Kee in Caddo, Oklahoma. She moved to Midland in 1978, where she was a hairstylist for many years. She married Don Brookshire on Nov. 28, 1994 and was blessed with a bonus family that she immediately claimed as her own.
To know her, was to love her. She always met you with a smile and a kind word. She enjoyed working in her yard and feeding the birds and rabbits that would come visit her in the mornings. She loved big and her greatest joy was getting to spend time with her family, especially her “GG babies.” She is survived by her husband Don Brookshire of Midland; daughters Susie Lindley of Ingleside, Kim Bryand of Stanton, daughter Lisa Morgan, and husband Frank of Sanger, bonus daughter Trina Falcon, and husband Charlie Falcon of Andrews; bonus son Robert Brookshire and wife Leeann of Austin. Together, with her husband, they share 16 grandchildren, 22 great grandchildren, one new great-great granddaughter, and many nieces, nephews, family and friends.
She is preceded in death by her parents Silas and Hazel Kee, sisters Bobbie Jo Kee, Doris Miller and husband Don, Anita Diamond, and her daughter Rebecca Lynn Field, 'the angel God loaned her.'
Graveside Service was Aug. 8, at Evergreen Cemetery in Stanton, officiated by grandson Matthew Ruiz.
