It is with extreme sadness that we must announce that Peter has passed away peacefully though unexpectedly, Sunday morning, May 5, 2024.
Cherishing the time we had together, and memories are myself, Mary and his only son Paul.
Peter’s passion for numbers created a career starting out in England and the Bahamas as an accountant and after moving his family to Calgary, it was the investment industry. His first passion was sport – Arsenal soccer and statistics, and rugby. In retirement he studied languages such as Old English, German, and several European languages.
He was an accomplished runner. His medals include the Boston Marathon two times, numerous other marathons including the 100 and 50 km ultra marathons from Seattle to London, England. He was a rugby referee and a coach, as well as kayaker. He practiced a life of exercise every day, preferably outside, preferably in a bush, and it had to be challenging. Peter never went on a road trip without a tent and a couple sleeping bags just in case there was an opportunity to use them!
For Paul and I, he was our support for whatever situations we encountered together.
The funeral service will be held at ST. JOHN’S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH (504 – 2nd Street S.E.) on Saturday, May 11, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. with Rev. Dr. R. (Bob) Cruickshank officiating. To leave a message of condolence you may visit www.pattisonfuneralhome.com.
