Obituary of Eileen Patricia Caissie
It is with much sadness that the family of Eileen Patricia Caissie wish to announce her passing at the Bonnyville Health Centre, in Alberta, on Thursday, January 25th, 2024. She was born in Saint John, New Brunswick, on October 9th, 1945 (a twin to Frances) to Rita (nee Housen) and Frank Morris.
Patsy attended school in Saint John, then moved to Alberta with her husband Robert and daughter Christine. There she lived independently until health and social issues caused her to transfer to assisted living and for the past 10 years to a Long-term Care Ward within the Bonnyville Hospital.
Patsy enjoyed travelling home to visit family and friends until her health prevented this. She is survived by her daughter Christine of Calgary, Alberta; her sisters, Fran Clements, Eleanor (John) Moore, as well as by several cousins, nieces, and nephews. Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her husband Robert (2004), infant son (1975), brother Vincent (2003), and nehpew Stephen Moore.
Fran and family would like to extend heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the staff of LTC who cared for Eileen (as she was known in Alberta) over these many years.
A very “special” thank you to Dr. DeFrietas who “always” cared for Eileen with much compassion and respect; to her Pastor, Derrick, who visited her regularly; and most especially to her long-term caregiver Shauna Langer who TRULY loved and cared for Eileen as though she were family.
Fran wishes to thank Amanda (Memento Chapel, Alberta), Jacob as the first contact and presently Hannah at Brenan’s, Saint John for their kind assistance and compassion.
Resting at Brenan’s Funeral Home, 111 Paradise Row, Saint John (506-634-7424) with a memorial service to take place from the Brenan’s Chapel on Saturday, May 18 at 1 PM.
Donations in Patsy’s memory may be made to Romero House or the St. Vincent De Paul Society. Online condolences and memories may be shared at www.BrenansFH.com.
