It is with heavy hearts that the family announces peaceful passing of Patty with her family by her side. She is daughter of Don and Ruth Gilbertson. Daughter-in-law of Phyllis and the late Leigh McGrath. Devoted and cherished wife of Shawn McGrath. Proud mother of Theresa-Lynne McGrath and Laura-Anne Flood (Kristopher). Tuna of Chaeli McGrath, Amber-Lynne, Sophie, Brianna and Kevin Cain; and Connor and William Flood. She will be missed by her siblings Calvin (Kerry), Brent (Janet), Marney (Joe) and John.
