DEATHS


DREADDY, Patrick Joseph
78 Years
On Wednesday February 22, 2006 Patrick Dreaddy passed away in the Fort
McMurray Hospital after a lengthy illness. Patrick is survived by his
devoted wife Philomena (nee: Gabriel); his sons and daughters: Jason,
Terrance and Yvonne, Norbert and Angie, Derrick and Diane, and Tammie
and Dale; grandchildren: Tamara, Adam, Melissa, Erynn, Shaunna,
Rochelle, Stacey, Jennifer and Jordon; great grandchildren: Griffin and
Emma, and his brothers and sisters, Anne, Nellie, Bill and Angus and
their family members. Patrick was raised at Fox Harbour, Newfoundland
and was predeceased by his mother Leona and his father William. It was
from them that Patrick attained his modest demeanor, learned an
appreciation and pride in family, and discovered the value of hard work.
He was a warm, caring, and very giving man. Those of us that know
Patrick are deeply shaken by his death and it is with great sadness that
we say our final good-bye to a great family member, mentor and friend.
His life was and remains an inspiration to all of us. Patrick was
cremated in Fort McMurray and on his request his remains will be carried
to Newfoundland where they will await the rest of us. If friends so
desire, memorial tributes in Pat's name may be made to the Alzheimer
Society of Canada.
