Natalie “Pat” Greta Langille
1926-2017
LANGILLE (Burlock) Natalie “Pat” Greta
– age 90 of Yarmouth Nova Scotia passed away peacefully on
April 6, 2017 in Yarmouth Regional Hospital. Born in Gronlid, SK on
September 8, 1926 she was the daughter to the late John and Katherine
(Feilkewich) Burlock, of West Ukraine. Pat left home as a teenager to
work as a personnel investigator for the Retailers Service of Canada
where she worked undercover to identify employees who were stealing
from their employer. She spent many exciting years travelling the
country and would often share stories of the adventures she had along
the way. After meeting future husband, Ernest G Langille, the two were
married at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, BC and returned to his
native Nova Scotia to begin their life together. There they raised
three children, Gary, Donald and Ken and she was a caring mother to
her children as well as an outstanding homemaker. The family moved
around the province, following Ernie’s different job
postings as Superintendent of Fish Hatcheries in Southwest Nova
Scotia. The two retired to the quiet village of Isaac’s
Harbour, Guysborough Co., where Ernie had grown up. Here they enjoyed
30 years of retirement together where Pat became heavily involved at
the Isaac’s Harbour United Baptist Church and the Order of
the Eastern Star, where she served as Worthy Matron. She loved visits
from her grandchildren and great grandchildren who enjoyed time in the
strawberry patch and vegetable garden with their grandmother. After
Ernie passed away in 2008, Pat moved to Yarmouth to live with her son,
Ken. She enjoyed many years meeting new friends and truly becoming
part of her son’s family. Last year after her son Ken passed
away, Pat moved in to Gentle Care in Dayton where she made many new
friends. She is survived by son, Gary (Louise) Langille, Halifax;
daughter in-law Ricky Langille, Bridgewater; her grandchildren, Jordan
(Cailen Smith), Yarmouth; Jenna, Boston, Mass., Christine (Steve
Harmon), Kentville; Thea and Alexa, Halifax, and her
great-grandchildren, Maddox and Sam, Kentville, and Caidin and Callie,
