Pat was one of a kind and will be deeply missed by her children, Robert Jr. (Tara), Chris (Nicole), and Alison MacGillivary (Ken); her cherished grandchildren, Baily, Ivy, and Keir; her beloved sister, Jennifer MacKinnon (Al – deceased); sister-in-law Dorothy MacDonald, and extended family and friends. Pat was predeceased by her husband, Robert “Bob”, her parents, and an infant brother, John.
