Patricia passed away peacefully at the Boyne Lodge in Carman, on February 15, 2021 at 95 precious years of age. Pat was born in Russell in 1925, the second child of Jessie and George Smellie. She was predeceased by her brothers: Robert, George, and Logie Smellie. Pat married Frank Kitson in 1947, and in love, welcomed two children - Peter (Anna Marie) and Marilee Kitson (Gord Laschuk). She later married the love of her young life, Elmer Partaker. Pat's grand children, Jodi, Renee and Tony Johnson, completed the enjoyment of family life, as did her many nieces and nephews who loved her dearly. Mom suffered with dementia in her later years, but always maintained her sense of humour, her love of reading, and her passion for hockey, football and curling. Our family gratefully acknowledge, and thank the staff at the Boyne Lodge for caring for our mother so tenderly during the years that she resided there. By her request, there will be no service, and her remains will be spread at Gleniffer Lake, Alberta, where she loved to be.
