Pat was predeceased by her husband Tony, her brother Randy Konynenbelt and an infant granddaughter Eden Grace Postman.
Pat was born on November 11, 1945 in Lethbridge to Joe and Johanna Konynenbelt of Nobleford, AB. She attended school at Noble Central School and then went on to study English at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Tony and Pat were married in August of 1966 and Pat assumed the life of a farmer’s wife. She spent numerous hours throughout her years volunteering for many different ministries and causes. International ministries were always near to her heart as she poured into the lives of countless people.
Pat loved to travel and experience new cultures and adventures. She was an excellent pianist and enjoyed teaching and playing for most of her life. Pat’s goal in life was to share the love of Jesus with everyone she met. She poured herself into her family and dearly loved and treasured her husband, her children and her grandchildren.
Pat will be missed by everyone who knew her. The people she knew spanned many countries, continents, faiths and ages. The family would like to thank the staff at St. Michael’s Health Center and the ALS Society of Alberta for their care and support.
A Memorial Service to celebrate Pat’s life will be held at the EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH OF LETHBRIDGE – Highway #4, just East of the 43rd Street Intersection, on Friday, November 18th, 2016 at 1:00 P.M.
