Healey, Audrey "Patti" Patricia
Posted Feb 23, 2022 | 11:13 AM
Audrey Patricia Healey, known to her loved ones as Patti, passed away on Thursday, February 17, 2022, at the age of 63 years.
She was born in Glace Bay, NS, and was a resident of Hythe, AB, for the last 27 years of her life. Patti’s life’s work was teaching. She adored her students and lived to see them succeed. She was proud to have been the teacher of Horse Lake School for many years, where both her students and her colleagues treated her with great respect. Though she was unable to work for the final years of her life, she carried love and gratitude for the people of Horse Lake with her always.
Patti was a kind and courageous soul, who even on her most unwell days thought only of
others. She spent much of her free time knitting sweaters for friends and family. She was also
an ardent supporter of the arts, and had worked with local theatre company Broadway Live
Broadway on their annual shows since 2008. She had a passion for reading and devoured
books constantly, a habit which she passed on to her daughter, along with many wonderful
memories.
Patti will be deeply missed by her husband of 37 years Rick Healey, and her daughter Ricki.
She also leaves behind mother in-law Agatha Healey; siblings: Jimmy (Ann) Tarso, Sharon
(Bobby) Stewart, Marie (Greg) Nagam, Joanne Wilson, Lonnie (Dale) McNeil, and Kim (Jack)
Kelly; brothers and sisters in-law: Linda, Isabel, Marlene (Brendan), Jackie, John (Terri), Michael (Lucy), and Gary (Rhonda), who were as close to her as her own siblings; as well as nieces and nephews, who are too many to list, were loved fiercely by her and will miss her deeply.
Patti was predeceased by her parents Audrey and Frank; brother Daniel “Buster”;
father in-law John; as well as her brothers in-law Gerard and Wayne.
The family has chosen not to have a service at this time.
If you wish to show your respects, we ask that you do so by giving to a charitable cause, or performing a good deed for someone in need.
