Dear mother to the love of her life, Caitlin (Cat).
Beloved sister to Joey, Margaret, Monty (Marie), Charlene, and John (Carmen).
Auntie to Michèle (Guillaume) and Stéphanie (Fred Erik).
Great Auntie to Tristan and Cassia; and Liam Erik and Ella Kristine.
Merci mille fois to family friend, Dominique (Alain) for her compassion and generosity of spirit.
As the heart of her family, Pat continuously brought people together for unforgetable dinners and celebrations in her home. Pat was one of a kind, smart and sassy, an accomplished woman, an artist, and a gardener extraordinaire. We admired your humanity, your sense of justice, and kindness to all of us and the wee critters that you gave a home to in your ecological garden.
We celebrate Pat without holding a service. Plant perennials, or support bird-animal sanctuaries in her name, if you wish to do so.
Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. Adieu, Pat.
