Obituary For Agnes Lowe Patterson

Agnes May Patterson, Wife of Jim Patterson; Mother of Gail Haakstad (Carmen), Rick Patterson (Susan) and Darin Patterson (JoAnn); Grandmother to Daneil Maude (Alex), Tory Haakstad, Durai Haakstad, Jared Patterson, Ryan Patterson and Brooke Patterson (fiancée Nelson Marques); and Great-Grandmother to Trystin Bain and Jordyn Maude; passed away on Thursday, December 1, 2016, at Points West Living.

Mom was born in Beaverlodge on May 2, 1935 to Maurice and Magdalena Lowe. She grew up on the Lowe family farm just east of Beaverlodge, surrounded by her 2 brothers Alan and Joe, and 4 sisters Ruth, Bertha, Beulah and Margie.

During her youth, Mom attended school in Beaverlodge and eventually met and married Jim Patterson in Beaverlodge on May 21, 1955. After their marriage, they moved to Grimshaw, Pouce Coupe, Dawson Creek and eventually Grande Prairie where she resided until her passing.

Mom was a generous, kind, graceful, and loving person who was an avid cheerleader and supporter of not only her children, but those who joined her children in their various activities. Whether it was sitting in the stands in a cold arena, attending an art show, a horse event or a dance recital, Mom was always there to support.

Agnes is survived by sisters Beulah Sanderson and Margie Hodgson.

She was predeceased by her parents, Maurice and Magdalena Lowe, siblings Allen and Annie Lowe, Robert and Bertha Hauger, Gordon and Ruth Albright, Joe and Marj Lowe, Harold Sanderson and Jim Hodgson.

    Dear Jim, Gail, Carmen and family, Thinking of you all at this difficult time. Agnes was a lovely lady - I will always remember her impeccable style and her smile. My Mom worked with Agnes many years ago in one of the downtown drug stores, and spoke highly of her. So sorry the past few years have been difficult for all. I'm sure this will be an hard adjustment for you, Jim. Take comfort in family and good memories. Karen
