Patricia Ann Davies

Patricia Ann (Jackson) Davies – Age 79 passed away peacefully at her home on December 12th 2024. 

Patricia was born on September 24, 1945, in Cody, Wyoming, to Lawrence and Inez (Davis) Jackson. She grew up in Cody alongside her 11 siblings, where they lived for many years. Patricia later moved to Casper, Wyoming, where she met her first husband, Alvin Dale Provence, with whom she shared four children. Together, they created countless cherished memories for their family. She was deeply involved with the Troopers Drum and Bugle Corps organization, dedicating many years as a volunteer while her two eldest children participated and competed with the corps. 

Patricia relocated to Glenrock, WY later in life where she met and married her sweetheart William Robert Davies. Together they worked to build the life of their dreams. She dedicated most of her time to the town of Glenrock in several different ways. Some may know her from her days of owning and bartending at the Knotty Pine, or you may know her from her years of community service as a town council member. She could also be found volunteering her time at the Glenrock Senior Center Thrift Store later on in life. Her organization skills were unmatched. 

Not only was Patricia a great mother, but she was a very gifted grandmother who had the patience and time to be involved in each of her grandchildren’s lives. Those who lived close reaped the rewards from Nana’s daycare service. Her generosity to all her family and friends was as big as her heart. 

With steadfast work ethic, an indomitable spirit, and a heart full of gold, Patricia lived a life that inspired everyone who knew her. She could build a house from the ground up – literally – turning blueprints into homes filled with warmth and love. Her resilience in the face of challenges was unmatched, and her ‘can-do’ attitude left no dream unachieved. While her hands were skilled at crafting and building, her greatest gift was the way she poured love and kindness into everything she did, creating a legacy of strength, compassion, and grace that will live on in all who had the privilege of knowing her. 

Patricia was preceded in death by her husband William Davies and his parents James and Marie (Bergin) Davies, Alvin Provence the father of her four children, her daughter Sheila (Provence) Bailey, her mother and father Lawrence and Inez (Davis) Jackson, her sister Virginia (Jackson) Qualls, and her brother Herschel Jackson.
