She lived in numerous places in Nova Scotia, Ontario and Manitoba over the years while raising five children, a good number of years as a single mom, after the death of her husband Rallin, in 1953. She moved a number of times over the years just to be with family and finally, at the age of 91 moved from Hantsport, NS back to Winnipeg, MB, where she lived for seven years with her granddaughter Tressa Lemky (Ron) and great-granddaughter Samantha Lockhart. In her younger years, Granmom was an avid curler and bowler. She had a lovely voice and was active in the Glee Club in Windsor NS. Granmom loved live theatre, particularly comedy, which is no surprise to anyone who has witnessed her dry sense of humour. Granmom loved to travel and returned to England three times over the years. One of her fondest travel memories was the trip to Cancun with her daughter Shirley and husband John and John's mother Sadie on the occasion of John and Shirley's 25th anniversary. One of Granmom's favourite Mother's Day gifts and memories was the trip that her family sent her on in 1999. Granmom went to see her beloved Blue Jays in Toronto where she was hosted by the team and the Skydome Hotel for a weekend that she would never forget. Not only did she see her team play and win but was able to meet numerous players and coaches and most importantly she was able to meet and spend a fair bit of time chatting with her favourite Blue Jay of all, Tony Fernandez. She made the front page of both the Toronto and Winnipeg Sun newspapers and was interviewed by a number of the local TV stations including CTV. Granmom was predeceased by two of her children, Eugene (Ellen) in 1984 and Shirley Payzant (John) in 1999. The family wishes to express their sincere appreciation and thanks to the Doctors and Nursing staff of Riverview Health Centre for their compassionate care of Granmom over these last 11 months. We also want to thank all of those who helped her with her daily needs and did those little things, like making her tea every afternoon, that kept her feeling so much more than just a patient. A celebration of Granmom's life will be held on Saturday, October 15 at 1:00 p.m. at Springs Church, 595 Lagimodiere Blvd., in Winnipeg, MB. | Frances (I9974)

| 632 | Frederic (Fred) Allen Patterson, 91 of Coldbrook Nova Scotia, passed away peacefully at Valley Regional Hospital on April 26, 2022. He was born in Wolfville Nova Scotia, to the late Evelyn (Harvie) and Everett Patterson on March 4, 1931. He was the youngest son, and second youngest from a family of 6. Growing up during WW2, he loved to play baseball and he watched 3 of his older brothers go off and serve, but he was still too young to go by the time the war ended. He had various jobs at a young age, including working in the Hantsport NS lumber mill, but he soon found his calling as he watched the United States Gypsum Company ships go up and down the Avon River into Hantsport. Sometime, in the early 1950’s he decided to head to the shipping office to see if they would have him. In about a weeks’ time he was on a ship that would ultimately take him places up and down the eastern seaboard, as far as Mexico, for close to the next 25 years. He ended up serving on a good number of the ships in the fleet and continued to go to school to eventually earn a marine engineering ticket and later, his Stationary Engineering certification. After retiring from the US Gypsum Company in the mid 1970’s, he went to work for Avon Valley Greenhouses in Falmouth NS, helping to run and maintain their boiler systems and plant maintenance. In 1977, he was asked to relocate, and become the plant manager for Scotia Greenhouses in Woodville NS, where he remained until his retirement in 2006 at the age of 75. He was a person of many talents when it came to fixing or building anything mechanical or electrical. In his younger days he was an avid hunter and snowmobiler and later in life at age 70, he bought his first of several boats that he completely refurbished and used for fishing flounder and mackerel. He always enjoyed watching hockey and baseball and was a big fan of the Montreal Canadiens. He was predeceased by his wife Marie, and son Frederick Jr., along with his sister Jean and brothers Gordon, Frank, and Arthur. The family would like to thank the many health care professionals at Valley Regional Hospital who worked hard to keep Fred comfortable during his final days. By request there will be no service and cremation has already taken place. | Patterson, Frederic Allen (I1851)
