Susan (Elworthy) Crober My sister and I were sad to hear of Pat’s passing. Your mother was a loyal friend of our mother Angela Elworthy. We were impressed how Pat made a special effort to catch the bus and visit Mum when she was in Sunrise, and said lovely words at her wake. We used love to hear the Guiding stories and she had us chuckling. RIP dear lady.
