Pat Burnett
1952-2020
BURNETT PAT … In the palliative care unit at the Saint John
Regional Hospital on Saturday, April 11th, 2020; Patricia (Kiervin)
Burnett, wife of the late Robert “Bunker Bob” Burnett went
to heaven to be reunited with her soulmate, whom she has missed
immensely for the last 18 years. She was lovingly surrounded by her
daughter, granddaughter via FaceTime and family friend Father Aaron
Knox. Due to the current circumstances, candles were lit for her by
her loving family members from each of their homes. The family would
like to sincerely thank the palliative care nurses for their
exceptional care during Pats final hours.
Born in Saint John N.B. she was the daughter of the late Raymond
& Patricia (Darrah) Kiervin.
As a child, Pat loved spending many summers at Treadwell Lake with
her aunt, uncle and cousins. She spent 30 amazing years with the love
of her life Bob. They had a love like no other, traveled on many
adventures and were always by each other’s side.
Becoming a mom and grandma was Pats greatest joy. She was best friends
with her loving daughter and very close to both of her grandchildren.
She will be greatly missed. In later years, Pat became a volunteer
with her close friend Tina at the Loch Lomond Villa. She worked with
Tina at NODA (nobody dies alone), sitting with patients during their
final hours who had no family. She loved the Lord and this was her
ministry.
During the last year of her life, she waged a courageous battle
against advanced liver disease. She remained optimistic and resilient
through the pain and always had a smile on her face. She always had a
positive attitude for the many people who took the time to come and
visit with her. Her lasting words will always be remembered….
“Make sure they all know how loved they made me
feel”.
Pat is survived by her daughter Kimberly Scott (Wayne) of Rothesay,
