Patricia "Patsy" Lou Cullison, 90, departed her Earthly life on March 19, 2026, surrounded by family in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Born on October 27, 1935, in Burkburnett, Texas, to Ellen and Floyd Landes, Pat graduated from Burkburnett High School in 1953. Pat worked for the Civil Service at Altus Air Force Base in Altus, Oklahoma, and Shepherd Air Force Base in Wichita Falls, Texas, until she retired in 1994. Ever the one who wanted to see more of the country and world, Pat not only encouraged her children to explore but did so herself. Regardless of whether she was in Alaska or Australia, she always returned home to Burkburnett. She loved the beauty of the mountains, waterfalls, and fall foliage. Pat had a strong faith in God, and even though mankind occasionally frustrated her, she always knew the tide would turn, and kindness would win. Those who knew and loved her saw that kindness in everyday acts. 

Her spirit for exploration and living will be deeply missed by those who survived her: children: Teri Miller (John), Janet Duvall (Duncan), Chris McElwain, Craig Parks; grandchildren: Chad McElwain, Amie Stepp, Erin Fowler, Ashley Ginanni, Russell Miller, Jenna Brightmire, Drew Duvall, and Capri mcElwain; great grandchildre: Elijah Baum, Caleb Baum, Ava Gizzi, Tristan Ginanni, Azreal McElwain, Muse McElwain, Guilianna Ginanni, Ember Miller, Sam Stepp, Ava Friend, Teddy Stepp, and Addison Fowler. Pat was preceded by her parents: Ellen and Floyd Landes, her brother Garth Landes, daughter-in-law Shelly Parks, and granddaughter Danielle Parks. 

In place of a memorial service, family will be taking trips - as Pat enjoyed doing throughout her life - to honor and remember her.
