Patricia Ann Pryor (Nana), 71 of Palmer, TX passed away peacefully on Monday, May 24, 2021 in Waxahachie with her husband and daughter holding her hand on her 71 ^st birthday. Pat was born May 24, 1950 in Ennis and was raised on the Valley Farm outside of Ennis. She attended Rice schools and graduated from Ennis High School in 1968. She later moved to Palmer and married Robert Pryor on May 27, 1983.

She opened Pat's Child Care in her home in 1987. She was more than a babysitter to them. She was more like an extra grandmother. She raised countless children over the last 34 years and made so many memories that we will cherish forever.

She is survived by her husband Robert Pryor of Palmer, her son Darrell Richardson of Plano, her daughter Dana Dickerson and husband Cody of Ennis and her only grandchild Peyton, the sunshine of her life. Also, missing her is her cat Tilly and dogs Tucker and Bear. The last child she raised in her daycare, Lexie Stephens, whom she considered her granddaughter as well, will miss her Nana greatly too.

She is preceded in death by her sister Linda Jackson, mother Birdie Jackson and father Frank Jackson.

Being Peyton's Nana was the greatest accomplishment of her life. She enjoyed attending all of her sporting events, games and theater performances. She was a loving and supportive wife, mother and Nana and will be greatly missed.

"We love you to the moon and back!"

A Celebration of her life will be held on Thursday, May 27, 2021 at 10 a.m. in the J.E. Keever Mortuary Chapel of Ennis with Zach Wright officiating.
