It is so sad when someone who has lived so well passes away at a relatively young age. My prayers are with each in the family, especially Miranda, whom I know, for, despite the knowledge that Pat is without pain and suffering in the presence of Jesus, you will rightly miss her presence – she is absent from you. We grieve along with you. May that same Jesus who has wiped away her pain be close to you and comfort you at this time of loss.
The Rev. Prof. Peter H. Davids
I loved you Aunt Pat. I am so relieved that your pain is over now. Rest In Peace!
Miranda: May the Peace of Jesus be with you as you hold your grandmother, Patricia (Saundrers) Young in your heart. Please know that the SSU Community mourns with you. Because you hurt, we hurt. Because you grieve, we grieve. Our prayers and our sadness are held up to heaven for you, knowing that God’s love will dry the tears and His Grace will restore your hope or a new day.
Miranda, much love and heartfelt prayer to you and your family. I am so glad you were able to spend time at home, to be in the presence of your grandmother whom you have loved so much and have been loved by so much. Know that we we love you and grieve with you.

Dear Bob and family.
It has been a long journey for all of you, but especially Pat. We rejoice that she is alive again with her Heavenly Father and those family members who went before her. Her reward which we all strive for on earth has begun, the reward of Eternal Life, where she is free from pain and sorrow. Please know she will still be with you all in “Spirit”, looking after you all as she always has. And until your Spirits are all reunited once again, give thanks for the life and love she gave to you all. You have all been blessed. Love Ronalee
So sorry to hear, that Aunt Pat has passed away. She was one of my favorite Aunts,even if I didn`t get to see her, Hard after your parents Divorce ,to keep intouch with all family, She was a lovely and caring person, Remember many good times, at your house in Thorndale, Swimming in the big pool, being teased by Scott and Rob., Playing in the room, of the living room with Shellie. Aunt Pat always made you welcome ,and was always doing fun things with us. She is now in a place ,where she is no longer in pain.With her two boys, and her parents. Bless you Aunt Pat,soon you`ll hear some bells, when she gets her Angels Wings. If she already doesn`t have them,since she was a true angel on earth.
Lots of Love and Hugs to you all, Laura and Spencer Curtis
To Lori and to all the Saunders’ and Young Family,
There really are no words that anyone can say that can take away the hurt and instant loneliness that comes from the loss of a loved one. Even when it is expected, and even when it is welcomed as an end to pain. Even when you know your loved one is now with God and they have been renewed. Even when you know they are at peace; it still hurts. Just know that we are thinking of you and praying for you; that God will bring you His comfort and strength and also His peace, the kind of peace only He can give; peace that surpasses all understanding. You have our heartfelt sympathy.
Bob & family, Sandy & Gary,
Our most sincere thoughts and prayers are with you during your time of sorrow. We have such strong memories of the wonderful spirit that lived within Pat .Her strength and positive attitude was a fine example for all to model. The good Lord has welcomed one of His best home! May His peace also comfort all of you.
Love and Blessings from the Murdock’s

My sympathy to Pat’s family, it is sad to thing of all that she had to endure but she truly exemplified a grace filled walk with her Saviour and now as always she in her Lord’s care. We enjoyed the times she would drop in and visit us as we worked in our garden. I also got to know Pat when I tended to her pets on a professional basis especially Snowball. Her strong faith is an example for all of us. She always trusted God enough though she a number of challenges and very sad things to deal with in her life. She will be missed but she truly touched many lifes and encouraged us to see and experience the joy that comes with a Christian’s pilgrimage.
May God bless you all and give you peace in this time of sorrow, and time of celebration of a life well lived. May we all see Pat again some day.
Sincerely,
Larry Joosse
