PATRICIA MOFFATT Obituary

PATRICIA MOFFATT December 14, 1930 - June 11, 2012 Canadian actor. Died peacefully at Toronto East General Hospital of pancreatic cancer. This Winnipeg girl started her career in 1954 with Bernie Slade's summer stock theatre and went on to a two-hander on CBC-TV with William Shatner, four plays at the Crest Theatre, a starring role in the National Film Board's groundbreaking original drama "Crossroads" (1957) and many other productions -- including the cult TV series "Strange Paradise" -- that can still be seen on one medium or another. For more than 30 years, Pat was also Canada's top female commercial announcer. Thanks to all the kind and loving souls who made Pat's journey a pleasure -- the pleasure it should be: her sister Mary (Happy) Tulk of Toronto, brother-in-law Bert Tulk (deceased) and brother James Moffatt (Beryl) of Winnipeg and five wonderful nephews and their families. Pat left us all a note: "Early in my crazy toboggan ride of life I had the good luck to meet a most beautiful and talented woman, D. J. Hamilton, who appreciated my love for her for 50 years. Together we chose a family of friends and fuzzies that made life a joy. Thanks all, and raise a glass in appreciation." Thanks to the TEGH and the palliative care unit and staff, headed by Dr. Kevin Workentin. Their caring support softened the cruelty of cancer. A donation to the Actors' Fund of Canada would be greatly appreciated (Actors' Fund of Canada, 1000 Yonge Street, Suite 301, Toronto, ON M4W 2K2, or online at www.actorsfund.ca).

Great neighbours like Pat and DJ made my move to The BEACH instant 'home'. These girls smiled and laughed from the time they left for work to the time they came back home. Stray cats were fortunate to find a new home with Pat and DJ. I can still hear DJ's voice singing out to one particular stray named BO. Pat had the kindest and warmest of smiles. Pat, your VOICE and spirit will always be with me. We'll take good care of DJ until you meet again.

As a young girl, I always looked up to 'Aunty' Pat. She was a kind inspirational person with warm smile and a beautiful voice. I was lucky to know her as Jim's aunt and Happy's sister.

In the little time I knew Pat, I never felt more accepted about who I am or shared as many honest laughs. She is an amazing soul, and I am honored I got to meet her.

Our condolences to you DJ. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
