I would like to extend my deepest condolences to Allen, Scott, LeeAnna and Jen, as well as the extended family. Although it has been many years since I’ve seen Pat (or the family). I have nothing but fond memories, either at family gatherings or at work. My heart goes out to you all.

We were very sorry to hear Pat had been ill. I remember her from the many years she worked with Kay at the store; always a sparkle in her eye and a cute sense of humour. To her family we send condolences.

My sincere sympathies on the passing of your Mom. I will miss her smile and laughter.
My deepest sympathy to the Hugh’s family. I would often meet Pat at the grocery store, and we would catch up on everyone’s whereabouts. Up until a few years ago we would also meet on November 11th for the memorial service in Hawkesbury. Such a lovely person she will be missed by all. God bless.
Sincerest condolences to Pat’s four beautiful children, and families. It’s a very special thing that we got to see and say goodbye to sweet Pat. So many great memories of times spent with her. She will never be forgotten.
My condolences to all Pat’s family. Ian visited Pat in the hospital and through the wonders of technology we all said goodbye to Pat (Ian, Barbie, Margo and me Ross.).
Pat meant a lot to us

My sincere condolences to Allan, Scott, Lee Anna and Jen you were MY second family, my second home, my childhood. So many memories of a woman who always made me feel at home and made me love the endless homemade oatmeal RAISIN cookies. From Brownies and Girlguides to the day she helped me find my dream wedding dress, to “drinking endless jugs of freshie” by the pool, I miss my drop in’s on Front Road but am grateful for the memories. Love Kel
Our deepest sympathy to Pat’s family. Sincerely, Helen Wyman

Pat was a wonderful lady. We worked together at K & W Assaly’s. Pat was very helpful when fashion show time came, arranging all the jewelry, accessories and footwear. Kay depended on her and trusted her with many personal secrets. I was sorry to hear she was ill. She will be missed. Our deepest sympathies to the family. Corey and Debbie
