Patrick Alexander Malcolmson

Born in Edmonton, Alberta, Pat had a long career in the oil and gas industry in Alberta and Saudi Arabia. He was a professional steam engineer and boiler inspector, an expertise that carried over into his many years of enjoyable volunteer work restoring steam trains in both Edmonton and Calgary. Pat was also a passionate swimmer and expert swim coach, and treasured his years swimming with the Calgary Masters Swim Club. He loved athletic competition and the many friendships he made in his volunteer work.

Pat will be remembered for a great sense of humor and deep love for his family. Their achievements were something of which he was most proud.

Pat is survived by his loving wife Ann; sister Anne Schmitt (Bob); sons Patrick (Sylvia), Bruce (Marianne) and David (Debbie) Malcolmson; daughters Lori Host, Sandra (Greg) Wohl, and Kirsten (Tom) Hill; and his 26 grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

A Memorial Service will be held at SOUTH CALGARY FUNERAL CENTRE, 12700 Macleod Trail South (at Lake Fraser Gate), on Saturday, August 3, 2019 at 1:00 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations being made in Pat’s memory directly to the Alzheimer Society of Canada, (https://alzheimer.ca/en/Home) or to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, (https://www.heartandstroke.ca/).
