A SORORITY SISTER FOR MANY YEARS, WE HAD LOTS OF LAUGHS AND GOOD TIMES. MIKE AND I ARE SO SORRY. PLEASE ACCEPT OUR CONDOLENCES

Bob, John and Colleen. I am so sorry to hear of my second Mom’s passing. She has and always will have a special place in my heart. She always welcomed me into your home with her sunny smile and contagious laughter. I will never forget the butter tarts, cookies and always bringing cake donuts home from Stratford, I am pretty sure she is partly responsible for my size to this day.

The world lost a special lady and I am grateful for having the privilege of her love all those years ago.

Dear John & Mary & Family;
So sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my own Mom last August and I know how hard it can be. I am comforted by the poem “Standing On The Shore” by Henry Van Dyke. I also like to remember a favorite verse: God gives us memories so that we might have roses in December. Wishing you and your family the gift of memories to uplift you in the coming days.
Most sincerely, Mark & Marilyn Rushton (neighbours)

To Bob and Family: I am still in shock about hearing of the passing of Pat. I didn’t know her very long, but she truly was an amazing lady. I enjoyed our short chit chats we would have. She will be missed dearly by anyone that knew her. Sending sincere condolences to all of you at this very sad time.

To Bob, John, Colleen and Families:

I sit here with tears running down my face to hear of Pat’s passing. I worked with Pat from the age 17 until age 29 at the Huron Real Estate Board. She was my first boss and confidant. We had many laughs going out to lunch for Chinese food and eating Culberts Bakery treats. Over the years, I have credited Pat with giving me the work ethic I now have today. Being only a teenager when I first met her, she formed me in so many ways and I am so grateful for her time in my life. Pat loved her husband with every ounce of her soul and her children and grand children were always spoken of with such admiration, pride and love at how they grew into such wonderful people. Dear Lord, she was so proud of you all!!! After losing touch at work we would run into each other and she would tell me all about John and Colleen and her grand children’s accomplishments. In our early times together she spoke of her youth on Lundy’s Lane in Niagara Falls. I truly loved Pat. She was so much more than a boss to me. As I finish this off, I just want to urge everyone reading this to reach out to people who mean a lot to you, that you have not seen in a long time. I wish now that I had called and visited more. We all know how busy life is, but take it from me – I regret not seeing her more and showing her pictures of my own family. I always said to myself: I have to get over to see Pat, but guess what, now I can’t do that, and for that I am deeply sorry. Heartfelt and deepest condolences.

Smiles for miles and a wicked sense of humor. Even though I was a scruffy long haired misfit, Pat saw the good in me and I was always welcome and loved in her home. Some of my oldest and most cherished memories. I tear up as I write this and I think of how I let her down. Colleen, John & Bob, you are in my thoughts. I am truly sorry to learn of your Mom and Wife, Patricia’s passing. You never realize how important a moment is, until it becomes a memory. Love and peace from the west coast.

Dear cousin Pat, I will miss you immensely. You were always there for a conversation or a quick check in online. Some days I called when I was missing my dad, just to talk to someone else who loved him, and to hear your voice, that same burry MacIntyre inflection there in your words. Other days you popped up in the mailbox, a quick card of love for our birthdays or “just because”.

Enn and I are often remiss about remembering our anniversary date, or how many years we have been married. However you were unfailing in congratulating us each year. Your example of celebration for the days that mark our lives changed my attitude of neglect. I promise to always be grateful, and celebrate the important achievements and occasions of our lives with the love and respect you gave to them, and your own family.

You and I both agreed that life goes by too fast when you can’t complain…and you never did. Your sense of humour just grew through any health or age related adversity. I strive to carry on that family tradition, but you are a hard act to follow! Per Ardua Ad Addam …. through hardship we proceed.

My heart aches for Bob, Colleen, Alysia, Thomas, John, Mary and their family but I know that your love will always remain to help them in their sadness, even though this loss was abrupt and too soon.

And I know wherever you are, there will be birds in the trees and flowers in the gardens, and many friends.
💕
