Patricia Altha Bartlet

Patricia Altha Bartlet (Walmesley) was promoted to glory on August 7th, 2025 at age 96. She faithfully endured until her race was run. Now, her faith has become sight! Pat was born on March 16, 1929 in Ottawa, Ontario. As a child, Pat and her mother lived with her grandparents, whom Pat loved. Pat also lived in Montreal as a young adult. After finishing her nursing training, she moved to Hamilton to live with her aunt and uncle. While living there, she met Ted (Edgar) Bartlet. Pat and Ted were married from Ted’s family home in Windsor  on January 20, 1951. In 1953 they purchased an old red brick farm house near Fonthill which is where their 4 children were all born and raised. Anne (Dave) Wilson, Jean (Ian) Bamford, Janet (Kyle) Moate, and Bruce (Karen) Bartlet. In 1967 Pat met Jesus, and joyfully gave her life to serving and loving Him in everything she did. Pat was blessed to continue to live in her beloved home for 72 years, until Jesus came to take her home to heaven to be with Him forever. First and foremost, Pat loved and cared for her husband and children. Throughout her life, Pat held an unwavering faith in God. As a testament to her life and love of Jesus, all 4 of her children and many of her grandchildren and great grandchildren also know and love Jesus. Her life was a wonderful testimony to His love, grace and mercy. She was an active member of Holy Trinity Anglican Church in Fonthill from the 1950’s to a few years ago when she no longer was able to drive. Pat also loved sewing, gardening, reading, and any form of bible study to help her know her Lord better. Pat now joins her beloved husband Ted and some of her best friends in Heaven. What a wonderful reunion that will be! Pat is survived by all 4 of her children and their spouses, 10 grandchildren, and 15 great grandchildren. When you think of her, know that her last wish for you would be that you would know Jesus as your Lord and Saviour too. Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened for you. We thank Jesus for our wonderful mother and grandmother and her life of loving and serving Him and all of the family He gave her. We confidently look forward to seeing her again in heaven.

A celebration of Pat’s life will be held at 11AM on Wednesday, August 20th, at Westburne Alliance Church, 237 Rykert Street, St. Catharines, ON. A lunch reception for friends and family will follow. Patricia’s family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the compassionate Personal Support Workers and the Palliative Care Team, whose dedication and kindness brought comfort to Pat and her loved ones over many months.
