Patrick Russell Maddigan
1938-2021
It is with heavy hearts that the family announces the passing
of Patrick Russell Maddigan on December 29, 2021 at the Dr. Everett
Chalmers Hospital in Fredericton, New Brunswick. Born on June 13,
1938, he was the son of the late Michael and Nellie
Maddigan.
Born in Kingston, Ontario, Pat started his 35 year military
career in the Navy as a musician playing the euphonium. He moved to
CFB Gagetown where he was the Drum Major in the RCR Band. He played
many places and had the privilege of playing for her majesty, the
Queen.
After retiring, he started a silk screening and engraving
business, Base Graphics, which served the military community for many
years. He enjoyed his retirement by cruising the Saint John
River in his houseboat, and could often be found playing darts and
drinking beer with friends at Minglers. Through all this, he was
joined at the hip with the love of his life, Patti.
Pat will be missed by his broken hearted bride of 59 years,
Patti; children Melodi, Dan (Susan), Tracy (Gilles); grandchildren
Krista, Deric, Cordell, Owen, and Amy; 5 great grandchildren; siblings
Donna and Richard as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins and
friends.
In addition to his parents, Pat was predeceased by his
brother Michael Barry Maddigan and sister Mary Ellen
Hunt.
A heartfelt thank you to the extraordinary team at Extra
Mural, the doctors and nurses and the VAC who all helped Pat in his
last days.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at St.
Dunstan’s Catholic Church on Tuesday, January 4, 2022 at
