RICHARDS, Gladys Patricia (Pat)

July 22, 1918-March 3, 2010

It is with great sadness we announce the passing of our mother in Langley Memorial Hospital. Predeceased by her loving husband Allen, siblings Rene and Don. Her sister Betty died four days after her. She is survived by her sister Jean; sons Larry (Penelope). Rick (Marion), and Craig, six grandchildren, eight great grandchildren one great-great grandchild. Mom and Dad came to the Hazelmere Valley in 1950 where they raised their family and made lifelong friends. Mom was the sunshine in Dad's life, his dancing partner for sixty-nine years. She delighted us all with her beautiful outfits, delicious food and tales of her wild dreams. Often described as a "great Lady" she lovingly opened her home to family and friends both here and down south during their twenty-five years of snowbirding. A celebration of Mom's life will be held on Saturday March 20 at 2:00p.m. at Sharon United Church, 21562 Old Yale Road Langley. In lieu of flowers, donations to a charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated.
