HUNTER (PAT) W. PATERSON It is with great sadness to announce the unexpected passing of Hunter (Pat) Paterson at the age of 85 on Thursday, March 8, 2007. Hunter was born in Kintore, Scotland and immigrated to Canada in 1927 with his parents and family, who then settled in Saskatchewan. In 1939 he came to Winnipeg and joined the RCNVR during the Second World War. On returning to Winnipeg in 1949, he joined the Winnipeg Police Force and retired in 1977. Even after his retirement he kept very active by volunteering his time and always helping others. Hunter was predeceased by his loving wife Florence in 1996. Remaining to cherish his memory is his daughter Liz (Richard) Pasieczka of Oakbank and their three children, April, Ryan and Shayne, his son John (Connie) Paterson of Kelowna and their two children, Chris and Tara, and his other grandchildren, Darby and Sheena of Winnipeg and great-grandchild Lily. He also leaves behind his sisters, Margaret (Peggy) MacDonald of Yorkton, SK, and Jean Brown of Regina, SK, his brother Walter (Marilyn) of Calgary, AB, and his sister-in-law Joan Brandson of Winnipeg, as well as numerous nieces and nephews. Hunter will be sadly missed by his family, relatives and friends. According to his wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family service has been held. Flowers are gratefully declined. If friends so desire, donations may be made in his memory to a charity of their choice. THOMSON IN THE PARK FUNERAL HOME AND CEMETERY 1291 MCGILLIVRAY BLVD WWW.THOMSONINTHEPARK.COM 925-1120
