remembering Patti x

I’m very saddened by the news of my friend Patti’s passing. My deepest sympathies go out to her large and loving family during this difficult time. This is an immeasurable loss, and I wish you all strength, comfort, and hope as you navigate through it. I cherish so many memories of my time ‘hanging out’ with Patti. She was a kind, fun, lovely soul and a true friend. In our late teens we were best friends, sharing many weird and wild adventures as we steered our way through the fearless teen years to early adulthood. As roommates we took the exciting step of moving into our first apartment (albeit short-lived) —a rite of passage that we often laughed and reminisced about in later years. Although around 1974 life led us down different paths, me to Vancouver and eventually to The Netherlands, we never lost our connection. Whenever I returned to Winnipeg we always managed to meet up again to catch up. Sadly in the last few decades I never returned to the Peg but thankfully we reconnected through facebook and enjoyed glimpses into each other’s lives and revisited the memories of our early friendship from those free-spirited “hippie” days. Rest gently, my dear friend … sending you love and light through your journey. xx - Kathy
