My memories of Pat are from her days with my Mom, Shirley Globis, as teammates on the 'Morning Glories' Bowling League at Bertrand's - every Wednesday, for years. My Mom thought the world of Pat, and I loved bringing my kids when they were little to watch those ladies bowl (and brag about their grandchildren)!

I know how much she will be missed. The entire Globis family offers our condolences to the Alexoff family.

Our deepest sympathy to all the family. We will never forget Pat's (& George's) hospitality on our trips to the US and how Pat & George, without any fuss or ceremony, made us feel instantly at home and so welcome.

Pat had an uncanny knack of being able to effortlessly entertain guests in her laconic style that enabled everyone to be relaxed and content even when the house was full. She was blessed with a great sense of humour and always kept us captivated with her sharp wit. She was always calm & collected, always focused on her family around her. We will cherish the vivid memories we have of Hickory Haven and the great times we had with Pat, George, Jim Lisa, Jenna & all the extended family on our visits there. We will miss you Pat.
Our prayers are with all the family
