Dear Joyce and family,, seeing Pat’s picture sure brought a rush of warm memories. Joyce and Pat were our bus drivers for many years, getting us daily back and forth safely to Mount Carmel School. As a youngster, seeing both of your friendly welcoming faces,, made heading off to school always so much easier. I am so sorry for your loss,, and will be thinking of you, especially during these next few days. Sincerley,, Brenda (Rimmer) Morgan.

Joyce and Family:

Our heartfelt condolences on the loss of your dear husband, father and grandfather.

Pat was such a positive influence in our Mount Carmel heritage and will be truly missed. Though our paths didn’t cross often, I always enjoyed catching up with both Pat and Joyce when we would meet. Pat would go out of his way to inquire about our family and we would always share a laugh about past adventures.

You are in our thoughts and hearts. We’re not able to attend, but send a hug.

Condolence from Helen Ryan on February 8th, 2017 2:49 PM

My sympathy to the Marrinan family. You have lost a husband, father, grand father, friend: but he has left a legacy of memories, laughs, tears. The Marrinans were running buses before I came to the community. It was an honour and fun to know and work with Pat and Joyce and know their family as students at Mt. Carmel School, and after.

The Irish eyes and wit abound in heaven with the addition of another Irish soul!

Condolence from susan Lemieux (Fleming) on February 9th, 2017 9:02 AM

He definitely made a positive impact on the community. Font memories on the Mt Carmel school bus, particularly when he would speed up over the hill (hey bus driver, speed up a little bit …) so the bus got a little air and make everyone’s stomach jump. He and Dad seemed to shared the same sense of humour too!!! He will be missed.

Neil and I have fond memories of the Marrinans busing us both to Mt. Carmel School and of growing up on #4 Highway, R.R. #1, Clandeboye as your family did.

Condolence from Jane Radley on February 11th, 2017 5:17 PM

Joyce: We are saddened to read that Pat is gone. It was such a great picture of him in the paper. Because of weather and road concerns, we didn’t get to see you.

We will miss his visits. Our thoughts are with you and your family. Jane and Fred Radley
