Patsy Ruth (Beesley) Worthylake was born in Oklahoma City in 1932. 
She moved to southern California and graduated from high school in 
Linda Vista, California. She was crowned "Fairest of the Fair" in 
1950 and used the prize money to enroll in nursing school. While 
practicing nursing she met and married Ralph Worthylake; together 
they had five children. She and her family moved to Medford in 1964. 
After her youngest child entered school, Patsy went back to nursing, 
working first at Planned Parenthood, then as a pediatric clinic nurse 
at the Medford Clinic. She traveled extensively, visiting Tahiti, 
Thailand, Russia, Europe and the Caribbean. She was an avid reader 
and a great cook, but most of all she was an exceptional wife, mother 
and grandmother. She died at her home in Central Point Saturday, 
September 2, 2006, surrounded by her husband, her five children and 
their spouses, and her eight grandchildren. Her grace and courage 
held strong to the last. No service is planned.
