Patty will be remembered for her kind heart and generous spirit. The love she had for her children, grandchildren, family and friends was unwavering. She had a warm and welcoming personality that made everyone feel comfortable in her presence. She was known for her sense of humour, style, sparkle accessories, compassion, and willingness to help others. She touched the lives of many people throughout her life. She possessed a light and loving energy, a caring nature, and a genuine interest in the well-being of those around her.

Patty's laughter, and loving presence will be deeply missed but fondly remembered by all who knew her. Patty's favourite pastime was playing TV bingo, cards and watching her favourite shows like Price is Right. The family would like to thank the nurses and staff that took good care of her at Inverness Consolidated Hospital. The dialysis unit who she loved dearly. We know how much they will miss Patty's presence and fashion sense. The nurses and staff at Wagmatcook Health Center. She was especially grateful to Elaine Allison and June MacKenzie.
