Condolence from Tim O’Connor on October 8th, 2020 6:35 PM

Uncle Kevin and all of Patsy’s family;

I still have fond memories of Patsy from when I was a kid, over 40 years ago, when I would pop by the house on Main Street to play. She was always nothing but kind when this little ruffian showed up at the door unannounced.

My thoughts are with you. Strength is in family and know that I am there with you. Take care.

-Timmy

Mike,Jeff, Brad-or Fred…
My sincerest condolences on the passing of your wonderful mother.
I have many many wonderful funny memories of Beulah-from the cow bell at the hockey games, to the bus rides home including drunk rides-she always managed to get my drunk ass to Elizabeth street, to hanging out on Main Street, to the St Pattys day shindig with all the dancing and laughing we could do, to most recently once I had kids taking them on Halloween to Beulahs for her to say…”well Beverly once your kids have been here I can close the doors and call it a night”
Patsy was always smiling, having a good time and always made me laugh.
She will be missed
Shawn and Bev Dayman (Dauncey)

Condolence from Gary and Linda Hayter on October 8th, 2020 8:53 PM

Kevin, and family. Where do I start, Patsy almost felt like family. From the Exeter Junior D. hockey days, to the Lucan Junior D. games here in Lucan, where our kid,s played. We sure enjoyed many great hockey weekends. Remembering , many great summers, camping at Pinehurst. Best memory was getting a ride home from our 25.th. Anniversary Party, in a souped up grocery cart. Even though we drifted apart for a few years, I was glad to reunite at Park View Place. So sad that we didn,t get to have some great times here. Watching you suffer was so hard, you are now pain free, and at peace. I will miss you, but know that you are in a better place.Rest -In – Peace.💕💕 Your old friend Linda.
