Patricia Barbee
May 29, 1947 - March 1, 2018

Trisha was passionate about a lot of things but especially about cats, antiques, her mom and little brother and cruising the world with her dear friend Stephen. She served the citizens of the State of Texas for over 30 years working in the infancy of the computer era in the Comptroller's Office. When she wasn't working she spent a lot of time helping the Austin community by delivering food for Meals on Wheels and collecting teddy bears for firemen and paramedics to use to ease the fear of little children. She loved to collect recipes and put those skills to good use as a member of the Austin Junior Forum's Cook Book Team.

Trisha could express delight better than anyone I have ever seen. Such a full embracing intensity. She adored giving the most syrupy cards to which she would add more hyperbole and dozens of exclamation points. There is no one who could gift a card with more childlike expectation than Trisha.

Situated on a hill that overlooks downtown, Oakwood; Austin's oldest cemetery will become Trisha's place of rest on March 14th. Services will begin at 10 AM at Weed-Corley-Fish and continue at graveside. Please remember her by planting something green that will live on in her memory.
