PAT ORMISTON

Susan, we are in sorrow together. Mom died the same week as your wonderful dad. I know they will now be having coffee together with the rest of the happy gang that was together so many years. Sending you and your family much love. A big hug, Diane McLeay, Perth,Scotland

Pat was a gentle giant who touched the lives of so many in his long and varied life. He so clearly loved his family but was a friend to all. We will keep all of you in our prayers. God bless you in your memories of Dad and Grandpa.

Dear Judy, Lisa,& Jimmy & family,

I was sad hear about the death of your dear Dad and Grandpa. I remember visiting with him at LCBI. He was so warm and kind.

Today friends who had attended told me about the funeral service. They were so moved by what they learned about your Dad and Grandpa,and by your wonderful tributes to him.

May God bless and comfort you.

Love and prayers,
Margo Linsley & family

Dear Elizabeth and Ormiston Families: Your Dad was a Man among Men. We loved our association with him at the Canadian Club and were so happy to see the attention his girls showered upon him, especially you, Elizabeth. Your Dad was proud, gentle, polite - always the gentleman. Both my husband and I enjoyed knowing Pat. You'll miss him terribly but how lovely to celebrate a life well-lived.

Elizabeth and Jeanne- Your dad was such an amazing man and we were so glad to have him as a member of the century club - thanks for bringing him to events. I remember doing his 99th birthday story for the front-page of our newsletter and it was just a delight to listen to his reflections on his family and his life - you could tell he dearly loved you all. can only imagine how deeply he will be missed. Sincere condolences. Karen Heise - chair - Saskatoon century club

My deepest sympathy to Judy and family, it is evident from the family that I met, that many of the great characteristics written about Mr.Ormiston continue to carry on through his decedents.

Susan, you had a great man as a dad --
we often thought of him (and your mom) when we heard your name on the news.

Remembering visits with your family during university days and family connections earlier in Tantallon days.

Susan, I wish I had had a chance to meet your Dad. I'm sure he would have been great to share a 'couple fingers' of whiskey! There are no words that can really express sorrow for the loss of a beloved parent. But my heart goes out to you and your family. Love from a fellow prairie gal...

Dear Judy, Jim, Lisa and family:

We are sorry to hear of the loss of your father and grandfather. May you find peace and comfort in the days ahead.

What a long and wonderful life your father shared with you - his girls! The Ormiston family always felt very close to the MacMillans at Grosvenor United. Both your parents paid very special attention to our sister Barb and she loved it! Judy and I have maintained our friendship over the years since CGIT days. I enjoy our recent phone chats to keep each other updated on our lives, plus face to face visits when I return to Saskatoon. In my former support and education job with Alzheimer BC (and having a father-in-law with AD), I often used the wealth of information in the videos which Susan hosted. Again I felt close to the Ormiston family. Your family was always involved in helping others - such a gift from your parents.
Sorry that I won't be able to attend his celebration of life. I shall keep all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
With friendship and sympathy,
Linda (MacMillan) Hoskin,
Nelson, BC

Sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad. My Mom and your Dad were such good friends(Connie Olafson) Sinercely Ellie LeSann

Sorry for your loss. Both are families were well known to each other. He will be missed by us.

Dear Elizabeth, when we think of our St John's family, you always come to mind. You have been a wonderful child to your father...kind, compassionate and loving. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. We watch Susan on TV, and John often comments on the days when he taught her at Evan Hardy. Many blessing.

Very sorry to read of your loss Susan. May all your memories keep his spirit alive always

Susan, my sympathies go out to you and all the family. We are both grieving the death of a beloved parent. I hope that your dad and my mom are having a coffee together in the other dimension. Much love, Diane McLeay in Scotland xx
