Pat, I think of you so very often that not a week passes that I wished I had touched base with you more often. I really miss our chats over coffee and the phone. I will always cherish my memories and know that you are surounded by your four footed buddies. I know that there will always be a hugh hole left by your absence for Martin, Jesse, Chrystal Kelly and all your grnadchildren and friends. Rest Well Half-Pint - my Friend.

I find it so hard to comprehend that nearly a year has come and gone since our dear "Cat" went to heaven. She does visit me often in dreams, signs, messages that only she could send and feelings, but I still miss being able to hug her physically and hear her voice. Still, I am happy that she is receiving her well deserved rewards in heaven. She would be so proud of Chrystal, Jesse and Martin with how they are carrying on. Have a great 1st birthday in Heaven Pat! Go to a heavenly cat show! There was one here not long ago and I thought of you. I am sure you have earned your wings already! All my love forever - your best friend - Sandy Girard

Almost year mom... And each night I'm haunted with thoughts of you. I don't know that this will ever go away.
There is so much I wish to share with you, so much I want to say... and so little you'll ever hear or know now...
Not a moment of my life goes by when you are not remembered. Not a second passes when your perspective is not contemplated. At night I cannot sleep, as I'm haunted with thoughts of you (and even those of becoming you - I know you'd laugh at that were you alive!)
I miss you mom. I wish you were there to spell for me when I didn't have a dictionary at hand, to laugh with me when I had a joke to tell, to fight with me when an injustice was done. I wish you where there to hug.. even kiss goodbye. I miss you mom... with all my heart.
I don't know how I've continued to grow without you...

Mom was always a soft, genourouse and giving women. She gave me a family who made me feel i belonged.
Helping others without a thought was one of her many gifts that I will pass on to my children
I will always miss you.

It shattered my heart to lose a Mom as great as you , so many times that I could have had are know lost and the void will never be filled again . We all miss you with every breath we take we think of you. You will forever be in my heart as well as others , I miss you and love you more then I can explain with words.

My most treasured memory with Pat is her pregnancy with Jesse, the false labour days and finally the labour and delivery. It was such an honour to be there through it all and witness such a miracle.
Pat and I went separate ways shortly after that but it does not mean her memories were gone from my heart. We had great times so many years ago and I regret that we parted. The last time I saw Pat was near Shelbourne and McKenzie and I was driving and saw her and had to stop just to say hi, today I am thankful I did.
Pat, thanks for the good times we shared and the memories.
Kelly, Chrystal and Jesse, my heart goes out to you, I know how hard it is to lose your mom, but just know that she is no longer suffering and she loved you all so much.
Martin, I did not know you but I have heard that you did all you could to take care of her and help her. God bless you for that!

Chrystal,
All my love to you and your family. I spent every spare moment at your house for a good couple of years. You, Amber and I were always around, driving your Mom batty. She would send us out multiple times a day and we would always make our way back in!
Im so sorry for your loss and I pray that she is at peace. xoxox

Gosh I don't even know what to say except I send out all my love to the family...I remember hanging out at your place out in Sidney before, after school..weekends...well I was just pretty much ALWAYS there. I have a lot of fun memories at that place with Crystal.
Thought I would share a little poem, sorry if the religious aspect offends anyone I just think the idea of it is beautiful
This was written on another friends memorial but it was so amazing that I had to share......
To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, ""I welcome you.""
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......""My day was not in vain.""
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Gosh kids, Martin...I could say so many things in regards to your mom. I do know one thing for sure...She loved each one of you so much!!! When your mom and I lived close, we fought fires, fought the system, fought anyone who was the underdog in life. YOU nailed it in your second newspaper piece. There was no living thing that Pat did not hold out her hand to no matter what her present situation was! If she had a roof, she shared it. If she had food, she shared it. If she had a kind thoughtful word, she shared it. Most of all, she shared herself, and gave herself...Never once did she hold any of you above the other! She taught me alot in my life, most of all, she taught me to give regardless of the outcome! I think of you all often - my prayers go out to all of you in remembering our time together! Even in the darkest days, I am sure your mom found her light to heaven!

Pat, we're really going to miss you down here. While you were only in my life for a short time, you still left a huge mark. You were like a second mother for me while I was up in Victoria, and I am so thankful for that.
Love you.

The sorrow of the faithful
is not that of permanent loss,
but the tender sense of sadness
that comes in saying good-bye for now
to someone we love.
May today's sorrow give way
to the peace and
comfort of God's love.
With fond memories
Ron, Deb and Luke Moes

Dear Martin,Crystal, Jessie, her beloved cats, and all who loved our Pat. She is certainly "Gone Too Soon". Our healing begins - Pat's happiness and peace begin. She loved you all so much. Pat and I shared many moments confiding in each other. She was a very caring person. When she was so ill, she was busy worrying about me that day because I did not feel well, instead of taking care of herself. She and I only knew each other a short time; much too short; in earth time but in soul time we were very close and old, old friends. She used to say that I was like her big sister.
I think my happiest memories of Pat are of when we were "giggling uncontrollably" together about some silly little thing that nobody else would even find funny. We did a lot of that.
During our last, extra long phone conversation we were laughing so hard that I almost p---d my pants! Pat and I had such a good time together and really acted like two school girls - especially at Christmas at the Salvation Army thrift where we worked together - wearing our hilarious little red Christmas hats. She looked like a little elf; now our little "Cat"(my nickname for her)is our little "angel". I will forever treasure the huge angel she gave to me last Christmas. It is like having a little piece of Pat with me always.(Or should I say a "huge" piece"! Pat and I are still communicating, and I hope that she and I, as well as we all will always keep in touch and always keep her memory alive. She is finally receiving her rewards for being such a good person here on earth. I already miss her so much. You have my deepest sympathies.
