Sadly Patience passed away on Tuesday 27th February 2024, after bravely battling a number of acute conditions with her family at her bedside.

She will be dearly missed by all her children, Alison, Robert & Angela, her grandchildren, Freddie, Eliza, Honor, Beatrice, Eve and Sarah-Joy.

The family wish to support a Motor Neurone Disease charity instead of flowers and as Pai was a huge rugby fan - they have selected Dodie Weir's My Name'5 Doddie Foundation as the chosen charity.
