WIGGINS, Patricia

Peacefully at the Guelph General Hospital on Friday, February 24 2023. Patricia was in her 93rd year and was predeceased by her beloved husband Arthur (1990) and son Geoffrey (1959).

Pat was the loving mother of Marion Christensen of Guelph, Barbara Wiggins of Toronto, Pamela Peoples of New Jersey and Robert Wiggins and his wife Debbie of Guelph. Dear grandmother of Kathy (Phillip), Emily (Donald), Robert (Niya), Zachary (Robyn), Joshua (Renee) and Jesse. Dear great-grandmother of Caleb, Devin, Dustin, Alexandria, Sara (Kyle), Alexis, Zia, Onyx, Mahalia and Aliyana. Dear great-great grandmother of Clarke, James and Kaius.

Pat will be remembered warmly for her great sense of humor. Whether it was laughing at one of the boisterous family gatherings or sharing a chuckle with one of her friends, Pat always saw the funny side of life – something her children did too, a trait inherited from their father according to Pat. Pat loved to stay busy with sewing, needlework, reading, playing golf, and a good Bridge game. Pat also spent many happy hours volunteering at the local theatre guilds in both Peterborough and Guelph. Her last years were spent at The Elliott Retirement Residence, thankfully safe from Covid, where her happiest hours were spent visiting family for dinner when allowed, or snuggling with the new great-great grandchildren.

The family will be forever grateful for the loving care of Pat by caregivers and staff at The Elliott and finally at the Guelph General Hospital.
