Patricia Lee Beach (nee Rickerby)

She has slipped the surly bonds of earth and will dance the skies on laughter silvered wings.  

Put out her hand and touch the face of God.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Patricia Lee Beach (nee Rickerby) on Sept 3, 2025. At the young age of 92, she drifted peacefully into eternal sleep. Wonderful daughter to Blanche and Cecil Rickerby. Adoring son, David and daughter in law Nicole loved her dearly. Samantha, Amanda, Taryn and Alexa enjoyed their grandmother's stories and her great grandson Fischer will share in the memories to come.  She loved the escapades she experienced with her brothers Don (Ruth) and Ken (Beth) Rickerby, travelling to Florida, spending time in Port Elgin and Southhampton at the Tin House. Her nieces and nephews John, Elizabeth, Martha, Colin, Dawn, Debbie, Stephanie, Elizabeth, Michael, Jennifer and Jeffrey and all their families enjoyed the time they spent with her. Her books now sit idle, her incredible quilts will continue to warm our hearts. Her silver rimmed glasses sit quietly on a crossword puzzle. The last clue she read....a women of great knowledge and stories who loved life and was truly admired, answer....

Her strength of character, her love and devotion to her family and friends will forever remain.

She is now with her best friend and husband Robert "Bob"  Beach dancing up a storm and sipping on margaritas.  Have Fun!!!
