Patricia Ann Rodgers, 63 of Seadrift, TX unexpectedly passed away June 28, 2015.  She was born October 31, 1951 in Grand Island, Nebraska to George O. Ellis and the late Ortha L. Henry Ellis. Patricia grew up in Oklahoma City and moved to Houston, Texas in high school, where she graduated from Spring Woods High School. Patricia graduated from University of Texas School of Nursing.  She was a Registered Nurse and 20 years ago built her own company, Pat Rodgers Rehabilitation Nurse Consultant.

Patricia was a kind free spirit, yet an integral and important part of the Ellis family that made it complete. Her caring nature is what led her into nursing and helping others. She was very attentive and caring for her sister Linda during her four year battle with breast cancer.  She was active in her church, Fisherman’s Chapel and Wounded Warrior Weekend in the local area.  She loved God’s creatures and took pets into her home when they need a place to be loved. Patricia will be greatly missed.

She is survived by her loving son, James E Gaile II, her father, George O. Ellis; sisters, Linda Clark and husband Gary Smith and Paulette Hamm and husband Pat; nephews, Lee Clark and Darren Clark and wife Denise.

Patricia was preceded in death by her husband Peter Barthelme and her mother Ortha Lee Ellis.
