Katie Lynn Parsley, 39 of Puxico, Missouri, left this earth for her heavenly home on Monday, February 4, 2019.

Katie is survived by parents Edward and Peggy Parsley, fiance Michael Keena, sisters Kathy (Clay) Faries, and Kendall (Mitchell) Tilley, all of Puxico. She also leaves behind her beloved nieces and nephews Allison, Molly, and Landon Faries and Sadie, Elijah, and Sara Tilley of Puxico; and Grandmother Doris Thompson of Dexter, Missouri, as well as several aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. Katie was preceded in death by grandparents Donald and Mary Lou Parsley of Puxico, and Gilbert Thompson of Dexter, Missouri.

Katie was a member of Duck Creek Baptist Church and was known for her love of the Lord. Often labeled as a “beautiful soul,” Katie loved Jesus, her family- especially her nieces and nephews, decorating for the holidays, and listening to gospel music.

Today Katie would want us to celebrate her life and legacy of her joy of loving the Lord.
