Patsy or Janet as she was known, was born August 28, 1930 in Decatur County, Iowa to Roy and Mildred (McDaniel) Miller. She passed peacefully on March 24th, 2025.
She was raised on a farm and attended rural school until the family moved to Corning, Iowa, where she attended high school. This is where she met and married Lawrence Dozier on August 8th, 1948. They settled on a farm north of Corning and to this union they had four children. After Lawrence passed in 1972, she went on to marry Donald "Don" Chase in 1975. After which, they moved to Red Oak where they operated a successful crop-dusting business.
You would often find Janet in a garden somewhere. It was her passion and therapy. She was a lovely mother and grandmother that also adored all extended family. She enjoyed traveling to see family near and far and rarely missed an opportunity for a fun trip. Her life was filled with her joy of farming, country music, playing cards, baking, canning and a leisurely drive through the countryside. She loved spoiling her grandkids, great-grand kids, nieces and nephews. She wouldn't pass up an opportunity to cheer them on at sports, bake cookies with them, or rock the babies to sleep. She also enjoyed going to the casino to play penny slots and bingo and never passed up a good buffet.
Janet was proceeded in death by her grandparents, parents, her daughter Patricia Stellern, her husbands Lawrence Dozier and Donald Chase, her brother and sister-in-law Darwin (Jean) Miller, sister and brother-in-law Norma (Dick) Huntsman, and sister-in-law Donna (Stuvick) Miller.
She is survived by her daughters and son, Martha Harmon, Connie (Dennis) South, and David (fiancé Paula) Dozier. Her sister and brother, Karen (John) Lucia and Bill (Shirley) Miller. Grandkids, Laurie (Brian) Elliott, Kristie (Jerimie) Logan, Zachary (Missy) South, Jordana (Adam) Rodeheaver, Tyler Stellern, Chad Stellern, Leslie Ciacedo and Jeffrey Rodriquez, nine great-grandchildren, 18 nieces and nephews, 26 great-nieces and nephews and 23 great-great nieces and nephews.
A small celebration of life will be held at a later date.
