She was born on July 22, 1940 to Ola Pearl and John Wesley Teakell.
Patsy grew up in Penelope, Texas and attended Coolidge High School. While working for her aunt she met her first husband Sony Buetikofer. After they were married they moved to Austin Tx and raised two sons, Greg and Ronnie. She then began working for Farmers Insurance and made a lifelong career of it. After her husband passed she remarried Royce Czimskey and her family grew with two stepsons, Gene and Glen, and a stepdaughter, Cyrece.
They built a beautiful house in Spicewood, Texas. When they retired they sold the house and took off to see the world. They did a lot of traveling and even joined a RV Club. Patsy loved people and they quickly became her friends. They both worked for the Corps of Engineers managing parks in Texas during the winter months and RV parks in Colorado and Arizona mountains during the hot Texas summers.
Patsy loved camping with friends and family. She had an enormous heart and a wonderful sense of humor. She was generous, loyal, strong, loving and a special daughter, mother, sister, grandmother, aunt and friend.
She will be missed dearly.
