Patsy was born on December 2, 1944, in Dallas, Texas to O.T. and Regina Slaughter. She lived in Dallas before moving to Lake Whitney. On June 10, 1961, Patsy was united in marriage to the love of her life, John D. Hennig of Clifton, Texas. Upon marriage, they lived the majority of their lives in Hillsboro, where they raised their three children; John T., Turner, and Jennifer. Patsy was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother or "MiMi" to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

For eighteen years, Patsy worked for Mexia State School with the Outreach Program in Hillsboro, at the First Presbyterian Church; and for the Hillsboro ISD Special Education Department. After retirement, she later substituted for Hillsboro and Bynum ISD, because of her tremendous love for children and their education.
