Your mother was a lovely person. Kind of heart and a joy to talk to. I will miss seeing her walking Barnie in the neighborhood. May you have peace in your hearts during this difficult time knowing that she was such a great person.

Leigh and I only met Pat a few years ago when we were all members at Elmwood Lawn Bowling Club. She was such a lovely person, enthusiastically jumping into the game of bowls, always willing to volunteer her time. It was also a treat when she would bring Barney to the club to meet us all. Pat will be greatly missed and we are so sorry for your loss.

Dear Knowles Family, I send condolences to all of you as you grieve the loss but celebrate the life of Patricia. I was Dental Hygienist to Patricia at 484 Central Avenue when I lived in London years ago. I enjoyed my conversations with Patricia. She was very proud of her family. I send blessings to all who love Patricia. Dawn Cumming.

I’m so sorry to hear of Pats passing we were long time park friends with our dogs in tow. I just saw her a couple of days ago and had a nice chat with her. She will be missed by all the dog walkers at Gibbons.

Not only was Pat a very thoughtful friend but also an amazing listener. She was so good to Sadie, my rescue dog, and to me with all my up and downs regarding Sadie.
I am so sorry for your loss. RIP mon amie

I first met Pat at Thames Valley Golf Ladies League and later also joined her card group. Pat was so welcoming, gracious & kind - and always lots of fun to play with. I am so sorry for your loss.

I was sorry to hear of Pat’s passing.
I spent many years in her company working with marionettes through MayCourt.
She was very talented and helped us younger members become proficient in the skills.
She was always so much fun and enjoyed being part of this group.
Sincerely,
Sally
