Patricia "Patty" June Johnstone

Patty was predeceased by her husband Astor Johnstone in 2010, her sister Lorraine (Lainy) Rubin in 2016, her sister-in-law Lois Black in 2018, and her first husband Thomas Coulter Robinson in 1958. She is survived by her brother Jeff Black, brother-in-law Dr. Leon Rubin; daughter Paula Robinson, son Tom Robinson (Connie); and stepsons Jerry Johnstone (Jan) and Wayne Johnstone (Donna decd.). A loving grandma and auntie, Pat will be missed by her grandchildren Casey Robinson, Cheryl Johnstone and Dean Johnstone (Nicole) and her extended clan of nieces, nephews and their families; and long-time friend, Joann MacMorran.

At 92, Patty lived a full life that was always centred around family. Widowed at an early age, she became a working mom with two small children. Patty met this challenge with the love and support of her Mother and caring family and friends. After working for a number of years, Patty returned to school, becoming a Library Technician, all the while caring for her family.

Patty was artistic with a deep appreciation for beauty that she expressed through her painting, stitchery, gardening, and cooking -- always with a good book at hand and a few rescue cats underfoot.

Her marriage to Astor, with his love and devotion, also brought the love of his family and friends. He was a wonderful man who brought immense happiness to her life.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, August 31, 2018 at 2:00 pm at Thomson “In the Park” Funeral Home, 1291 McGillivray Boulevard.

Our mom had a strong love of animals and in lieu of flowers, if you are interested, a donation to the Winnipeg Humane Society, in her name would be appreciated.
