Born in Glasgow, Scotland, Pat moved to Canada with her husband Phil and their children in 1967.  They were welcomed to Powell River by a close group of Scottish friends who became a second family.  Moving to the lower mainland in 1975, she enjoyed a full active life playing badminton, Scottish country and Old time dancing and was an active member of St Nicholas Catholic Church.  She was loved for her kind personality and enthusiasm for life no matter what obstacles she faced.
She will be greatly missed by all those whose lives were enriched by her devotion to her faith, family and friends.
Special thanks to the kind nurses and doctors who cared for her throughout these last months as she fought her brave battle.
