Patricia Jean Bell

Patricia Jean Bell, 55, of Temple, Texas, passed away peacefully on February 18, 2026, surrounded by her loving family and dear friends. Born on June 15, 1970, Patricia lived a life defined by love, creativity, humor, and an unwavering devotion to the people she cherished.

Patricia was married to Kevin Bell, and together they shared 35 beautiful years of marriage and four sons. Their life together was filled with joy, resilience, and a deep commitment to family that will continue to echo through the generations.

Patricia is survived by her husband Kevin; her children - Brandon Bell and his wife Jordan, and grandchildren Cooper and Brooke of Rockdale, Texas; Dillon Bell and his wife Cristianne, and grandson Hendrix of Temple, Texas; Ryan Bell of Temple, Texas; Kieren Bell and his wife Cecilia of Belton, Texas. She is also survived by her siblings: Jackie Killion and her husband Mark of Palestine, Texas; Jimmy Totten and his wife Missy of Hutto, Texas; Debbie Haub and her husband Neil of Pflugerville, Texas; Steven Totten of Tennessee; along with numerous nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends who loved her dearly. Patricia was preceded in death by her parents, Harold and Patsy Totten, and her brothers Tommy, Teddy, and Eric.

A woman of many talents and a generous spirit, Patricia found joy in crafting, listening to music, and—above all else—spending time with her family. She had a sharp, quick wit that could brighten any room and a kind, gentle heart that made everyone around her feel loved.

The family will host a Celebration of Life at a later date, where loved ones can gather to honor Patricia and share memories of her beautiful spirit. Details will be announced once arrangements are finalized.

In lieu of flowers, the family welcomes financial contributions to be made to the American Breast Cancer Society and/or the National Kidney Foundation.

Patricia’s presence was a gift, and her absence will be felt profoundly. She will be missed dearly by all who knew her, but the love she gave and the memories she created will live on forever.
