Sunrise: Sept. 18, 1933 - Sunset March 21, 2023

It is with great sadness we advise the passing of our dear Elder Patricia Rose Gray (nee: Cole) on March 21, 2023.

She was born at St. Paul's Hospital on Sept.18, 1933.

She grew up in North Vancouver and Richmond, B.C. She graduated from Richmond High Secondary School. Pat spent many years working for various airlines like Wardair and Qantas, which gave her many opportunities to visit and live in places all over the world.

She travelled with her late father, Thomas Cole, to Cuba and Hawaii in his later years.

She lived in Toronto; Sydney, Australia; and settled back down in Vancouver.

At the age of 50, she graduated with her Licensed Practical Nursing degree.

She was known for her philanthropy and loved to help wherever she could.

Pat was dynamic, hilarious and was able to keep everyone in line.

She also loved her late daughter Debbie, son David and her cat Marshmallow a.k.a. 'Cat Stevens.'

She most recently loved attending all the 撸奶社区Nation Elders Centre activities.

Pat's favourite was Tai chi for its calm but structured movements.

Patricia is survived by her son David Gray; niece Janine Harris and many loving relatives and dear friends from West Vancouver and worldwide.

As per Pat's final wishes, a private family service was held at Glenhaven Funeral Chapel on Wednesday, March 29, 2023.
