Peacefully on November 21, 2020, surrounded by the love of his family at 76 years of age. Reunited with his late parents Patrick and Margaret “Daisy”, and son Aaron McGrath (2005). Cherished father of John and wife Rita. Dear Grandpa of Mia, Declan, Cole and Beau. Loving brother of Susan (Bob) White, Margaret (Len) Brooks, James McGrath and the late Joy McGrath. He will be missed by many nieces, nephews, family and friends.
Pat was born in Ireland, immigrated to Toronto Island as a young boy with his family. He spent his career as a Toronto Fireman, later retiring to Amherstburg to be close to his family. He will be remembered for his love of the outdoors, feeding the squirrels and was known as the “Amherstburg Walker” for his daily Tim’s coffee and all the amenities he loved so much about Amherstburg. His grandchildren were his pride and joy.
The family wishes to express their gratitude to the LHIN (CCAC), Amherstburg Community Services, the Doctors and Nurses at WRH Ouellette Campus, Hospice of Windsor and the Palliative Care at Dr. Y. Emara Complex Care for all their support and compassion. A special thank you to the friends and residents at Pickering Towers for keeping an eye on Pat. If you so desire, donations to the Kidney Foundation Windsor & District Chapter would be appreciated by the family.
Private cremation and family celebration to be held.
