Pat was always kind and gentle . She loved her family and they were the centre of her universe. She was proud of Eric’s accomplishments and also her children and the paths they took. Pat loved to shop . Pat enjoyed a Bluejays game. She liked to garden but since her knee troubles found it a more difficult task in the last couple of years. We will miss Pat . She was always there when you needed her. May Patricia Rest In Peace . Until we meet again 💕Becky and Dave

Anyone I talk to uses the word, “Saint” when they speak of Pat. She was kind, she was compassionate and always thought of others. Anyone who knew Pat, knows of her love of animals, especially her kitties at home. Pat and Eric have stood beside me, supporting Tiffany and I during Gerry’s final weeks at home, and since his passing over a year and a half ago and I am so grateful. Pat was beautiful inside and out. My sincere condolences to the family and to Cathy, Pat’s sister, who is also my co-worker who I love dearly. Rest in peace, Patty, the pain is over.
Paul & Sue Corriveau
