Obituary for
Agnes Patricia “Pat” MacLellan
It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Agnes Patricia “Pat” MacLellan. She was born to the late Peter and Violet (MacLean) MacKay in Inverness on October 19,1945. Pat passed away suddenly at home on Friday, December 9, 2022, at the age of 77 years.
She leaves to cherish her memory her loving husband, Peter; daughters, Lynn (Donnie) Montgomery, Monica (Brad) Thomsen, Michelle Kane (Doug); grandchildren, Ashley (Morgan), Jennifer (Matt), Tim (Kelsie), Chase (Tiffany), Alicia (Nathan), Brittany (Jon), Peter (Aleigh) and Kailey; great grandchildren, Will, Zachary, Penny, Samuel, Gabby, Paisley, Blayke, Preacher and Mira. Also survived by brother, John L. MacKay (Virginia); brothers-in-law, Joe and Norman; sisters-in-law, Mary, Jessie, Chris, Kaye, Peggy, Dilla and Theresa as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
Pat was very loyal to her family and friends. Instead of turning you in for a crime, she’d be your alibi. We all knew that if we needed to talk to Pat, it could never be during her late-night calls to Audrey. She had a strong personality with the kindest of hearts. Pat was very talented with crafts, quilts for the grandchildren, her music talent, and her mischievous adventures with the ladies, Audrey, Joyce, Marj, and Margaret. If she were still here, she would probably be preaching to us the following:
Remember me in your hearts, in your thoughts,
And the memories of the times we loved.
The times we cried, the battle I fought and the times we laughed.
For if you always think of me,
I will have never gone.
Pat attended Success Business College in Truro, worked as a secretary for many years then moved into homecare work where she found her passion working with critically ill and seniors.
The family wish to express their sincere appreciation to the nurses at Colchester Medical Day unit who provided years of care for her, special thanks to Mary, Bria, Nancy, Catherine, Kathleen, Dr Rowe, and her family physician, Dr. Sushil Sharma. We want to express our deepest gratitude to Audrey Bailey who went above and beyond putting her own needs aside to help whenever needed over these past difficult years.
Donations may be made to Kane’s Kitchen or STEPS On Arthur, formerly Colchester Community Workshop.
