May 6, 1932- October 10, 2013


Patricia was born in Sault St. Marie, Ontario and passed away peacefully at home October 10, 2013 with her husband and daughter by her side. She enjoyed stamp collecting, needle work, cooking, travelling, having pets and most of all, her family and friends. Pat was a certified community Librarian, a graduate of the school of commerce. In her younger years, she worked in administration for Garvin Ice and Fuel. It was here that she met her future husband, Mr. Mike Livingstone. Later on Pat worked as a clerk and was involved in the beginnings of the Castlegar Book Store. She was well known in her role as local librarian for many years, a path which her daughter Julie has decided to follow as well. Pat also devoted some time to teaching English as a second language.

Patricia is survived by her husband Mike, her son Mike W. (Elaine) and family, daughter Julie (Mike K.) and family. Daughter Vicki (Alf) and family. Sister Gwen and family, eight grandchildren and twelve great grandchildren. She was predeceased by her parents Harold and Julie Meierhoff and one grandson.

There will be a celebration of life at Pat’s request at the Portuguese Hall Saturday November 2, 2013 from 1-3 pm at 421- 13th Avenue, Castlegar BC.
