Dear James and Monica and families
My deepest sympathy in the passing of your mother Pat. She was a dear friend.
I found a photo of a trip Pat and I took to Toronto to visit Pat's Aunt Dodie and will attach it.
I remember we took Highway 7 and between Ottawa and Toronto we had brake trouble and it was the week end and most garages were closed. We were finally directed to a garage that was open and they fixed the brakes and on we went to Toronto. I don't remember the name of the town or what year it was but thought you would like the picture.
Love and Prayers.
Maureen Gagnon (I currently live in Campbell's Bay, Quebec)

Although we haven't had much contact with Pat in recent years we have known her since the early 1960's when we attended the same church. She was a wonderful lady and we enjoyed some good times together. We extend our sympathies to James and Monica and their families.

A truly wonderful person has left us here and gone on to be with her Lord in Heaven. The picture posted here is so typical of her. Quiet smile, wonderful sense of humour and great friend. She will certainly be missed.

I will miss Pat as we kept in contact over many years . Little did we know our meal with Marilyn , Sheila and Pier at the Bellavista July 15th would be our last together .
My prayers continue for Monica and James and their families . Also for Pier , a dear friend of mine as well. Life changes and we must change with it . Was thinking of litte Molly and wondering how she was taking it .
Love and prayers ,
