Patricia Ann Killion

Patricia Ann Killion, age 90, of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma passed peacefully from this life with her daughters by her side Saturday, February 7th, 2026, in Catoosa, Oklahoma. She was preceded in death by her husband, Kennith Killion; sons Kennith Killion Jr. and Mark Killion; her parents, Lewis and Dora Keeling; her brother, Frank; and her sisters, Louise, Faye, Barbera, and Jerva. Patricia Ann Keeling was born on November 21st, 1935, in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to Lewis S. and Dora (Brady) Keeling. She married the love of her life, Kennith Killion, on August 11th, 1954. Together they built their family raising four children until Ken's passing. Patricia never remarried. While Mother and Grandmother were the jobs she loved best, Patricia began working as a young teenager delivering telegrams in downtown Tulsa for Western Union. Over the years, she had many interesting roles, including elevator operator in downtown Tulsa; waitress at Bill and Cathy's in California; cafeteria worker at the University of California, Davis; and commercial cleaner for the Rooney Company, where she cleaned office buildings in downtown Tulsa for many years. She later found her way into the Broken Arrow Public School system, where she worked in food service before moving into custodial services. Patricia - known fondly as "Ms. Pat" - worked for Broken Arrow Public Schools for 25 years before retiring at the age of 81. In retirement, Patricia loved watching wildlife and the natural world around her. You could always count on her to call to let you know if there was an event happening in the night sky - or even just to tell you to look at the big, beautiful moon. She delighted in watching birds, butterflies, deer, and even the occasional feral cat. She also loved little dogs and had many faithful companions over the years. More than anything Patricia loved her family and she loved taking care of her family in any way she could. Sometimes that looked like frying potatoes, making taco soup, buying you clothes, taking you to and from school, folding your laundry, or slipping you $20 to "help Grandma with something" - but she always loved you more. Patricia is survived by her daughter Linda Williams and husband Greg; her daughter-in-law Sherri Killion, widow of her late son, Mark; and her daughter Melissa Williams and husband Denny. She is also survived by her grandchildren: Patty Williams; Keith (Serina) Killion; Kristen Scott; Andrea (Joey) Wilhelm; Connor (Channing) Williams; and Drake Williams; and her great-grandchildren: Kayleigh Scott, Jaymee Scott, Jayden Scott, Isabella Wilhelm, and Alexander Wilhelm. She is further survived by her sister, Carol Williams, and many cherished nieces, nephews, and cousins. Please join us in celebrating her life. Visitation will be held Thursday, February 12th from 5:00PM - 7:00PM at Moore Southlawn, 9350 E. 51st. Street, Tulsa, OK Funeral Services will be held Friday, February 13th at 10:00AM at Memorial Park Chapel, 5111 S. Memorial Drive, Tulsa, OK.
