Date of Passing: Aug 27, 2007
Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryPATRICIA LYNN KROPP Peacefully on August 27, 2007 with her family and loved ones by her side, Pat gracefully went to sleep. Pat will be missed and fondly remembered by her husband Richard of 45 years, son Tim (Tamara), granddaughters Taylor and Teagan and daughter Marni (Steve) and granddaughter Spenser, granddog MacIntyre as well as mother Clara, brother Jack and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her dear father John, brother Gary, sister Noreen and father-in-law Timothy, mother-in-law Dora and sister-in-law Joyce. Pat was born in Pine Falls, Manitoba and grew up in the area before meeting and marrying her lifelong spouse Richard. Early in their journey together life took them to remote and Northern towns where she kept busy working and volunteering in community events. She was very involved in whatever her children were active in. Summer events were full of camping and travelling and she enjoyed curling and skidooing in the winter months. Eventually Pat and Richard settled in Great Falls, Manitoba where they continued to develop life long friendships. Pat could always be found spending time in the backyard puttering in her flower beds or visiting in the gazebo she loved so much. Many people received unconditional love and a cup of coffee in that gazebo. Pat and Richard immensely enjoyed the many years they spent in Mazatlan continuously reacquainting with old friends and meeting new ones. Her greatest passions were her granddaughters Taylor and Teagan who referred to her as their Grrr . Just recently Pat was blessed with assisting in the arrival of her third granddaughter Spenser. Our family would like to extend a special thank you to loved ones who visited during her short stay at St. Boniface Hospital. An extra special and heartfelt thank you goes out to her dear friends Lynn, Leone, Myrna, Donna and Zen for their continued love and support. In addition we'd like to thank all of the Staff on the 5th floor wing B for the extra care and kindness they shared with Pat. If friends so desire memorial donations in her memory may be made to the Alzheimer's Society of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba. A Celebration of her life will be held on Friday, August 31, 2007 at 2:00 p.m. from the Great Falls Hall, Great Falls, Manitoba with Rev. John Robertson officiating. RUSSELL'S of Beausejour, Manitoba are in care of arrangements. Call 1-866-424-6271 toll free of 268-2263. CANADIAN INDEPENDENT since 1941.

Hi Grr it's Spenser I think I'm going to do the same thing as Taylor, but I will write to you twice every year. I really really really miss you Grr. It wasn't fair that you left us as soon as you did I was only 3 weeks old and I don't remember you but I wish I do. But it wasn't your fault that you got sick it just sucks that you did :(. Every night I listen to the song that the teddy with the purple shirt and hat that you gave to my mommy sings. Mommy gave it to me now. I'm going into gr.5 in September and I turn 10 on August 5th. I danced in the talent show at school in June. And this year was my first year doing competitive dance! I know you are watching over me and I just wanted to say that I love you so so so so so so so much. Talk to you soon! Love Spenser♥♥♥♥♥♥ - Posted by: Spenser (Granddaughter) on: Jul 18, 2017

Hi it's me again. I'm thinking about making this a yearly message. Still in rowing and am now 5'9. I know you know what's happening right now with everything in my life and I always know you're watching over me! Things have been hard lately but thinking of you makes it easier. I only wish you were able to be here for all the good and bad moments that happen. I still don't feel like I was really able to say goodbye. Dad tells me that you knew I loved you and I know that it's just that I really wish I could have just had a conversation with you and been with you. It scared me to know that our last conversation was going to be over the phone through auntie Marni because you were to weak to speak. I didn't know what to say. You never got to meet little Kolten. Spencer and Teagan don't remember much about you but for me it still feels like yesterday. 10 days after I turned 7. Kolten's in grade 2. Spencer's in grade 3. Teagan's in grade 7. And I'm in grade 10. I don't know why I feel the need to tell you because I know you know. but if there's anyway you could maybe ask God to help me out a little bit that would be great. Everyone thinks I have my life put together but I don't. I don't know who I am, who I want to be, who I can trust, who's lying to me, what's worth it, what's not, who my friends are, what I'm supposed to do with my family problems, or deal with my health problems. Do I be quite and unhappy to make my mom happy or continue to talk to pa like nothing happened to make him and dad happy. Do I say what grandma wants me to say to make her happy or say what I'm really thinking. Do I keep trying to live up to the perfect daughter persona that I can never seem to do or do I be who I want to be. I could definitely have it worse and I know that. My family isn't poor and I'm not in any physical danger so do I just shove everything down and not show emotions? I seem to be pretty good at that. Anyway I love you with all my heart!!!! Wish you were still with me today!!! Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo I hope your proud of me Grr because that's what I always wanted!! I'll see you again some day! Till then your Taylorgirl. - Posted by: Taylor kropp (Granddaughter ) on: Jul 04, 2015
