  • Pat became our dear friend, she was such a wonderful person with a very loving heart. We would go to gym together and then head for Tim Hortons and sit for a good 2 hour chatting. We loved our mammies and petties together, Pat was such a Lady, she always looked beautiful. We would call her our Pattycakes and we will miss all the cute things she would do. We are thinking of the family at this sad time and Pat will always be in our thoughts. We miss you Pattycakes and never be forgotten, love Bill and Sharon - Posted by: Bill and Sharon Farnworth (Next door neighbour and good friends) on: Jul 16, 2025
