Patricia Jean Bynum, aged 76, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on September 29, 2022 at her home in Water Valley, MS.

She was born on August 7, 1946 to the late, Joseph Newton and Willie Edward Gross. Patricia was known for being a free spirit determined to do the things that brought joy to herself and others. She retired from BorgWarner after more than 30 years of loyal service.
