Dear Morgan and family, Our hearts go out to you at this time. We are thinking of you today and remembering the many happy times we had with amazing Pat both in Sydney and Arrowtown, she was such a beautiful soul & will remain in our hearts & memories forever. All our love, Jeremy, Sally, Finn and Gemma
Dear Pat, farewell, we will miss you. Always loved being with you; especially talking about books. Love to all the family from Tokyo. David & Izumi
Dear Pat, you were a joy and delight. I always loved that, when we visited you (which was not often enough), you made us whitebait fritters. For an Aussie that was quite special :-) You will be so missed, by all, but particularly by your lovely, loving devoted daughters. Our love goes to you all. Michael and Kim Sankey XXXXX
To the whole family. My condolences to you all for the loss of a beloved Mother, Grandmother and great Grandmother. It is always a very sad time to loose your Mother no matter the age and circumstances. My love to all of you. Monica
Dear Pat was always gracious and supportive of artists, and genuinely went about her desires to fill her long life with wonderful projects and adventures. Pats eyes lit up whenever she talked about her family and with her wicked sense of humour, often left one feeling slightly naughty at whatever observations she made. Farewell Dear Pat and my life was better from knowing you. Andrew and Elizabeth Drummond
Pat was a beautiful mentor for me. She introduced me to The Catechisis of the Good Shepherd. I was amazed by her passion and dedication for this amazing way of children being in relationship with God. I caught it and studied the full three levels. Thank you Rev. Pat. May you rest in peace and rise in glory, amen
To the whole family, very sorry to hear of Pat's death. I still remember the wonderful occasion on her 60th birthday and the string quartet playing the piece dedicated to her. It was a lovely idea, Morgan, and I'm pleased to say 'Whakatipua' has been played many times since. I'll be watching the live stream tomorrow, as I can't make it to the funeral. All the best at this sad time. Best wishes, Anthony
Pat had a very longtime friendship with our family. She shared the birth of babies, child minding, business connections, weddings, holidays and who could forget the ‘fish and chip nights’ at Silveracres or McGeorge Ave We send our love to Morgan, Nicola, Rachael, Diana and Bridget. Please cherish your special memories of Pat and look after each other.
We'll miss you Pat, you were always so welcoming whenever we dropped in.
