Patricia Dawn (Rowe) Green

Patricia Dawn Green

(1968-2020)

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Patricia Green (Rowe), who died peacefully at the CNP Health Centre on the evening of June 8, 2020 at the tender age of 52 years. 

Patricia was born on February 28, 1968 in Winnipeg, MB.  Shortly thereafter, she moved to Brandon, MB where she would grow up and find a love of cooking and gardening and discover her tremendous artistic nature. In 1983, she met Lance Green and had two wonderful children. She later met a very special man, Frank Green, who became her loving husband of 24 years. Together they would have two daughters who completed their little family. After a brief stay in Coaldale, AB, they settled in Hillcrest, AB, and immediately integrated themselves into the community. Patricia and her family enjoyed many prosperous years in the Crowsnest Pass and she and Frank would purchase the Bellevue Inn in 2015. It was here where Patricia’s bubbly personality would flourish and make innumerable lifelong friends with her patrons. 

In August of 2019, Patricia was diagnosed with glioblastoma, stage 4 brain cancer. Despite this terrible disease slowly taking away her cognitive and physical abilities, Patricia never stopped showing her love and appreciation to her family and friends. She was our inspiration and demonstrated incredible courage and tenacity.  She will be greatly missed but never forgotten.

Patricia was pre-deceased by her father Barry McCoy and father-in-law, Eldin Green.

She is survived by her husband, Frank; children: Justin (Kathy), Natashia (Shawn) of Brandon, Tia (Jeff) of Lethbridge, Kimberly of Airdrie; grandchildren: Aurora, Adrian and Arianna; sisters: Tarrah Wentzell of Brandon and Christine McCoy (Neil) of Airdrie; mother-in-law, Pat Simpson of Cranbrook, brother-in-law, John Green of Bellevue; and her Baba Jean Ewanyshyn of Brandon; as well as numerous Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, Nieces, Nephews, her four precious feline friends: Nutmeg, Marble, Twilight and Ebony; and her mother. 

Although a private family service will be held, all are welcome to attend the public Celebration of Life that will be held at Patricia and Frank’s home (22601-7 Ave) in Hillcrest at 2:00 pm on Sunday, June 14, 2020. 

The family would like to sincerely thank her care providers from the Chinook Regional Hospital, Foothills Medical Centre, Tom Baker Cancer Centre, Crowsnest Pass Health Centre and our local homecare team.
