FC Daehler Mortuary

Patricia Lane Nagel, 82, of South Shore, Kentucky, passed away peacefully on October 18, 2025, surrounded by her loved ones. A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Patricia's warmth, humor, and love left a lasting impression on all who knew her.

Born on November 4, 1942, in Fullerton, Kentucky, Patricia was the cherished daughter of the late Ellis "Doc" Quillen and Janet Quillen. She and her beloved husband, Roger Nagel, built a life filled with love and family in South Shore, Kentucky, where they raised their daughters and created a home full of cherished memories.

Patricia had a joyful spirit and a passion for collecting, especially teapots and Hallmark Christmas ornaments. She loved reading a good mystery novel and was well-known for her quick wit and skill when it came to Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune.

An avid fan of both the Cincinnati Reds and the Kentucky Wildcats, Patricia enjoyed cheering on her favorite teams-baseball in the summer, basketball in the winter.

Patricia is survived by her devoted husband of 62 years, Roger Nagel; her three daughters, Anita (Jay) Jacobs of South Shore, KY, Missy (Patrick) Hutchens of Portsmouth, OH, and Amy Nagel of South Shore, KY; her grandchildren, Hannah (Alvin) Bailey of South Shore, KY, Andrew Hutchens of Cocoa, FL, and Joshua Jacobs of Louisville, KY; and her great-grandson, Thaddeus Bailey of South Shore, KY. She is also survived by her brother, David (Andrea) Quillen of Wheelersburg, OH, along with many extended family members and dear friends.

A Celebration of Life will take place at 2:00 PM on Saturday, October 25, 2025, at Hill Cross Church of God, 73 School House Rd., South Portsmouth, KY 41175. Visitation will be held at the church from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM, prior to the service.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to SOMC Hospice or the South Shore, KY Food Mission.

Patricia's love, wisdom, and laughter will be deeply missed but forever remembered.
