It is with great sadness that the family of Patsy Darlene Lane announce her passing. Patsy passed on Sept. 29, 2024, at the age of 82 after a long and arduous battle with cancer.
She was born Oct. 31, 1941, at Fowler, Indiana, to Luther and Beatrice (Powers) Crouch. The family moved to Delphi where Patsy attended Delphi high school.
Patsy is preceded in death by her husband, Orville R. “Hoss” Lane on Sept. 11, 2006. Orville and Patsy were married on July 15,1966. Patsy became a widow after 40 wonderful years of marriage due to injuries Orville sustained in a motorcycle accident. She is also preceded in death by one son, Bobby Lee Sears.
Patsy was a homemaker and mother. She was also an avid equestrian and bred dalmatian dogs. From riding contests of endurance to driving a team of haflingers, Patsy was one of a kind. She was an animal lover and a wonderful lady whom we will miss greatly.
Patsy is survived by daughter Roxann (Steve) Hudson; granddaughter Ashley (Dustin) Porter; great-grandson Bodi; son Danny (Mary) Sears; and by Bobby’s children, granddaughter Britny Sears and grandsons, Bobby Sears and Brady (Kira) Sears and their children.
