In Loving Memory of Patricia Rae Shaddon (Pams, Patti Rae, Gurr Gurr)
April 23, 1954 – October 19, 2025
Patricia Rae Shaddon, lovingly known as Patti of Perryville, Arkansas, passed away peacefully
on October 19, 2025, surrounded by her family.
Patti Rae was a woman of joy, laughter, and boundless love. She had a heart that embraced
everyone around her and a spirit that could light up any room. Her love for her husband, Darrell,
was the kind that could be felt in every glance, every shared laugh, and every adventure. She
cherished riding motorcycles with him, watching him play music and sing, and sharing the
excitement of cheering on their beloved New Orleans Saints. Their love was a partnership filled
with laughter, devotion, and endless memories. They have a love story that will live on in the
hearts of all who knew them.
She adored her children and grandchildren, who were her pride and joy. She loved her cats, her
lighthouses, and the simple pleasures that made life bright. She was sassy, funny, talkative,
generous, and always ready to share a smile or lend a hand.
She is survived by her loving husband, Darrell Shaddon; her children, Darrell Shaddon Jr.
(Jennifer), Kristen Krin (Josh), Nicholas Grant (Stephanie), and Becka Williams (Bradley); her
grandchildren, Aarron, Alyssa, Dean, Abigail, Caydence, Ryder, Jaxson, Grayson, and Oliver;
and her sisters, Debbie (Stuart) Verdon of Spicewood, TX, and Peggy Duncan of Eureka
Springs, AR, along with a host of nieces, nephews, and cousins.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Helen and William Harper and Arthur and Ann
O’Neal; her parents, Art and Helen Mae O’Neal; and her niece April Verdon.
Patti Rae’s love, her laughter, and her unwavering devotion to her family and Darrell will forever
remain in our hearts. Every Saints game, every song, every motorcycle ride, and every shared
moment of joy will remind us of the beautiful life she lived and the extraordinary love she gave.
A celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, November 1, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. at New Life
Fellowship with family and friends gathering to honor the love, laughter, and light she brought
into this world.
