It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of
Patti Jill Lipsett (Nason) of Fredericton NB on December 1st, 2020.
She was the daughter of Faye Nason and the late
Harold Nason of New Maryland
NB.
Patti was the happiest spending time in a barn or being in a
hockey rink watching loved ones. In her 20’s, Patti spent
several years as beloved head coach at the Fredericton Pony Club.
There, she was part guidance counselor, part best friend, and part
riding instructor to the many kids that walked through the clubroom
doors. She taught that all ponies –even the naughty ones,
deserved to be treated with kindness and respect and
that hard work was more valuable than red ribbons. She
developed lifelong friendships with many of her
students…most whom credit her for helping them become the
people they are today.
Patti is survived by her two
children Kristina (Greg) Shanks and Brendan
(Stephanie) Lipsett. If you ever wanted to see Patti’s eyes
light up, you just had to mention her two grandsons Benjamin and Leo
where she wore her « GaGa » title with
pride. Patti also is survived by her
siblings Dianna (Lee) MacPherson, Valerie (Bill) Willar and
Larry (Paulette) Nason. Patti had numerous
nieces, nephews and great nephews that put
many smiles on her face over the years.
Patti had a special bond with her work family at Brandt
Tractor and enjoyed vacationing in Florida with her family. She had a
deep love for all animals, big and small. She had an
unbreakable bond with her beloved dog Bosco, who was
right beside her during her final moments until she crossed the other
side, where her first love Cavalier met her, and they
galloped off to their new forever.
Due to the current health concern of COVID-19, there will be
no visitation. The Funeral Service will be
invitation only and will take place at New Maryland
United Church with Rev. Kelly
Burke officiating. For those who wish to view the
funeral, it will be live streamed on Saturday December
19th at 2pm on the New Maryland United
Church’s Facebook Page. Interment will take
place at a later date. For those who
wish, donations may be made to the
Fredericton SPCA, CARMA, or a charity of the
donor’s choice.
