D Patricia Bassett (nee Copley)

D. Patricia Bassett, 84 years old, passed away peacefully, guided by the Holy Spirit, from her daughter’s arms into the loving arms of Jesus, our Heavenly Father, and our Saviour and Lord.

Beloved wife of the late Robert (2005, Montreal). Missed by her children, Diane (Ottawa), Linda (Calgary), Nancy (Montreal), and Philip (Nina) from Montreal and two grandsons, Joel (Bethany) from Red Deer and Stéfan (Montreal). Predeceased by her “one and only” brother, Freddie (2014, Toronto), who was caring, devoted, and loving to his sister and sister-in-law, Margaret (2007, Toronto). Missed by niece, Mandie (Bruce) from Larry's River, and nephew, Lorne (Carole) from Petawawa.

She is lovingly remembered by many extended family, school chums, colleagues, and many dear friends from many churches, here and abroad, including Rosemount Bible Church and Verdun Community Church. A special thanks to Résidence Jean-Placide-Desrosiers, which was her home for almost ten years and to the many new friends, she made, both past and present, that “mom” had the pleasure of spending time with and enjoying their company. How many have received, over the years, a special card or (phone) greeting from the “birthday card lady”? Thank-you to one and all for all your prayers, encouragement, and support, in the past and now.

Much appreciation and heartfelt gratitude over the past several years to all the many doctors, nurses, and support staff at the MUHC (Glen), the RVH, and the “Neuro”. Also, special thanks to Dr. Joseph Yermus, long-standing family physician, and Marie, his retired nurse-secretary and the rest of his team. Additional, thanks to Dr. Joseph Gauze and his team, for over forty years of service to “mom” and a warm hug for the helping hands of Elizabeth Verge, Pharmacist, and all the employees at Uniprix. And finally, to the CLSC (Lachine-Dorval), Home-care (Nursing...), many blessings and great appreciation to all those who went above and beyond in caring for “mom”.

In lieu of flowers, a donation, in the memory of D. Patricia Bassett may be made to a charity close to her heart, Welcome Hall Mission or to Palliative Care (9D) at the MUHC (Glen) – RVH.
