Obituary of Patricia Ronelda Wilson
WILSON,
Patricia Ronelda
1934 – 2022
The passing of Patricia (Pat) Wilson occurred at Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon on Tuesday February 8, 2022. Sadly she was predeceased by Frank Hector (January 10, 2022) with whom she has shared a wonderful companionship for many years. She was also predeceased by her parents and three sisters and their spouses. Pat was born in Semans, SK to parents who came from Nova Scotia. Pat was a small child when the family moved to Saskatoon where she completed her formal education. Upon completion of a specialized secretarial course she accepted a position in the Medical Library, University of Saskatchewan, one year later transferring to the Physics Department to take charge of the Physics Library. Shortly thereafter a new department, the Institute of Space and Atmospheric Studies was formed and Pat was approached to accept a position as the Institute Secretary. She remained with the Institute for the rest of her working career. Early retirement became appealing and in 1997 she retired completing 42 years continuous employment at the University. Pat gratefully acknowledges her family physician, Dr. M. Jutras, for his concern, advice and kindness, over the many years she was his patient. Sincerely, thank you, Dr. Jutras! In honour of Pat’s wishes a graveside committal service will take place at Woodlawn Cemetery on Monday, February 14, 2022. Those wishing to attend are asked to meet at the entry gates at 1:45pm to process to the gravesite.
Flowers are gratefully declined. Arrangements have been entrusted to Saskatoon Funeral Home.
