Patsy was a faithful and involved member of the Stewart United Church. She was a lifetime member of the MacLean UCW and a dedicated community volunteer.
Over the years, she worked at Dino’s, Texaco, Trailsmen and done housecleaning with her baby sister. She also looked after her special aunt and uncle, Peter and Florrie Ferguson; secretary and business partner of TEREC Ltd., but her most rewarding job in life was looking after her family.
