She was predeceased by her parents William and Doris Washington; brothers Bobby, Lawrence, Ralph and Ken; and sister Gwen Glover. Mum always enjoyed family gatherings, listening to and telling family stories, especially those of her childhood years. She enjoyed her travels with Dad to their winter home in Westlaco, Texas, leisure times at their cottage at Albert Beach and travels across Canada to visit family and friends. She also enjoyed bowling and going for walks. Pat was born in Brandon, Manitoba 82 years ago as one of 12 children. She met her sweetheart George and they were married in 1950.

As her children became adults, she decided to start working at Red River Community College where she eventually became a Food Services Supervisor until her retirement. Mum was blessed with good health throughout her life until she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's approximately six years ago.

We are so sorry to hear of Pat's passing. Our deepest sympathy to George and family. We lived next door to Pat and George for 20 years. From the first day we met them, we were made welcomed. We soon realized how fortunate we were to be living next door to such great people. They were very helpful and a lot of fun. We enjoyed our time together, and have many great memories. No other couple were so devoted to each other. It was a pleasure to be around them. We truly miss them. George,we hope that you will be able to come out to the beach this summer. Take care. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. - Posted by: Ernie and Dianne Georgakopoulos (Friends and neighbor on Kirby) on: Jan 20, 2014

My very deepest sympathy to the entire Webb family, especially Mr Webb and son Bob. I spent a lot of time at the Webb's whether it be during lunch hour from school or many a sleep over on the week ends and was always made to feel at home, to the point where it did feel like my second home, and Mrs. Webb, my second Mom. I would often run into your Mom & Dad at Sturgeon Safeway and we would stand and chat for a long time, laughing at the many times Bob and I got into trouble or had being caught doing something that we shouldn't have been. However, that never changed how welcome I was the next time I was over. The last time I saw your Mom, was a few years ago when I was driving on Kirby Drive and saw her in the front yard. I stopped and we sat in the back yard with Mr. Webb and again had a wonderful visit reminiscing. She was a remarkable woman, with a huge heart and an incredible laugh. I know you all will miss her deeply. May your many memories guide you through this sad time and help to ease your sorrow. - Posted by: Donald Bissett (School hood friend of Bob's) on: Jan 16, 2014
