PATRICIA (PATTI) JOANNE ROBINSON (nee BIDDULPH) October 28, 1952 March 25, 2011 Patti was suddenly taken from us while at home with her family at her side after a lengthy battle with cancer. She will be greatly missed by her loving husband Ron, daughters Kristen and Alycia. Brothers Jim (Cathy, Rob and Dan) of Halifax, Lyle (Jev, Ryan, Lauren Steven), Brian (Cheryl, Christine, Nicole), sister-in-law Barb Bergman (Eph, Michael, Heather), brother-in-Law Bob Robinson (Bev, Melanie) of Winnipeg as well as many other close family and friends. Patti was born in Winnipeg and graduated in 1975 with Bachelor of Home Economics from the U of M. She was an active member of the Pi Beta Phi Sorority. While at school she worked for Eaton's where she continued for another 20+ years. At Eaton's she held a variety of Buyer and Management Positions. She moved to Calgary in 1976 and then was transferred to Vancouver in 1980, where she made her final home. Patti left Eaton's in 1995 to begin a new career in Sales and Marketing with TeePee Handicrafts, where she worked until the end. P.J. loved her many shopping trips with her girls. Ron and Patti had started to do more travel as their family matured. The family enjoyed their many camping trips in the motor home, summers in Osoyoos, trips to Baker Lake and ski trips to Big White. They always enjoyed lots of gourmet meals and fine wine. Patti loved sewing and was always content to curl up with a good book. Her family was her passion. In accordance with P.J.'s wishes, there will be no service. A private celebration of her life will take place at a later date. The family wishes to thank all the staff at Lion's Gate Hospital, and the Emergency response team that aided her in her final moments. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to the B.C. Cancer Agency or Lion's Gate Hospital Chemotherapy Unit. A memorial page for Patti can be found at bccancerfoundation.com
