Patsy Diana Koeplinger (Green), age 72, of Warsaw, Missouri, passed away peacefully on June 3, 2025, in her home, surrounded by loved ones. Born on December 1, 1952, in Butler, Missouri, Patsy brought joy, warmth, and a bright smile to all who knew her.
Patsy married the love of her life, Anthony “Buzz” Koeplinger, in December 1984. Together, they built a life filled with love, laughter, and family. She is lovingly remembered and survived by her husband, two daughters, Jeni Moore of Gardner, Kansas, and Kinsy Koeplinger (Rob Holland) of Bucyrus, Kansas; her four beloved grandchildren, Blake, Kaleb and Dylan Moore, and Parker Holland; and her cherished brother, Mike (Cheryl) Green of Adrian, Missouri.
Patsy spent 32 years living in Spring Hill, Kansas, and after retiring from bookkeeping at Reeves-Weidemen Plumbing Company, fulfilled her dream of moving to her lake house on Truman Lake in 2020. She found peace and joy in the beauty of the lake and the company of her family and friends. Known for her infectious smile—one that remained even in her final moments—Patsy touched the hearts of many with her kindness and sense of humor.
Patsy will be missed deeply by her many nieces, great-nieces and nephews, extended family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know her.
Patsy was preceded in death by her parents, Bob and Neva Green of Archie, Missouri.
A memorial service will be held at 2:00pm on Sunday, June 8, 2025 at Reser Funeral Home in Warsaw, Missouri. Following the service, the family invites friends and loved ones to gather at the Warsaw Knights Hall to celebrate Patsy and share stories of her life.
The family suggests donations be made to the Golden Valley Hospice Foundation ℅ Reser Funeral Home, PO Box 910, Warsaw, Missouri 65355, in appreciation of the compassionate and respectful care provided by the hospice nurses during Patsy’s final weeks.
