Judy is survived by her sons, Kevin (Jerri), children Stephen and Beth; Robert (Marni) and children Ethan and Jarius.

Judy was predeceased by her husband Ray, her parents John and Anne Wielgoz, stepmother Barb Wielgoz, brother Troy Wielgoz, as well as special aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

Judy was born in Wishart, Saskatchewan on February 28, 1948. She married Ray Patrick in 1966, and they resided on the farm near Bankend, enjoying many wonderful years together. There was much to do on the farm, but there was always time to get together with friends and neighbors, weekend trips to the lake, and numerous dances and weddings. She enjoyed curling with her close friends and participating in local bonspiels throughout the years. After Ray’s passing in 1986, Judy spent many years working at the local Co-op stores in Bankend and Wynyard, and she thrived in this new endeavour. She had a warm, outgoing personality, which led her to make many new friends, and form strong connections to the lives of people in these communities. She fostered these strong connections throughout her life, continuing them into retirement.

She spent her retirement immersed in her community and church. She was a very active community member, frequently visiting and checking in on elderly friends and family. She always looked out for others, helped those in need, and kept the community alive through her kind and caring actions.

Judy cherished time with her grandchildren, spending a lot of time with them throughout the years. She always kept up with what was going on in their daily lives. She listened thoughtfully and offered her support and guidance along the way. She enjoyed the outdoors as much as possible, tending to her yard and growing her garden were some of her passions. She passed on these pursuits to the next generations as well, instilling in her children and grandchildren a love of nature and growing things. She was always very compassionate to animals, feeding the birds and deer in her yard.

Judy resided on the farm at Bankend most of her life, enjoying the peaceful way of life the farm provided. She made her house a warm, welcoming environment, and because of this, it was a natural place for friends and family to stop for coffee, food, and pleasant conversation.

She was dearly loved and will be missed by all.
