Obituaries

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of our beloved Patti Lynn Fenrick on July 15, 2026 after her courageous battle with cancer at the age of 68. Her departure marks the end of a life that was defined by strength, resilience, and courage to face everything that she was given and always with a smile.

She was predeceased by her parents Harry (2009) and Irene (2021) Schweitzer; her brother Greg (2025) and his wife Judy (2013) Schweitzer.

Patti is lovingly remembered by her husband Eldred Irvine and was blessed with three children her son Jason Fenrick (Megan) and their two children Emerson (Aireus) and Harrison, her daughter Nicole Trautman and her other son Daniel Trautman; and stepson Corey Irvine. Patti is also remembered by her brother Greg’s two children Carrie (Steve) and their daughter Hannah and Ryan and his daughter Faith (Piet); her brother Kelly (Karen) and their three children Justin, Dallas, and Lindsay; as well as her sister Lori (Trent) and their daughter Alyssa.

Patti was born on May 3, 1958 and lived in Neudorf, Saskatchewan until she graduated then moved to Regina, Saskatchewan and finally settled in Sedley, Saskatchewan. She had a few careers along her way, the first working full time at SaskTel until she retired at an early age. She also had a few jobs after retirement. A couple were housekeeping and waitressing until she finally ended up working at the Regina General Hospital in dietary until her retirement in 2022.

Patti had a few pleasures in life which were gardening, camping, and anyone who knew her would have known the love she had for her many cats she had throughout her life. They were her babies and for sure got treated like royalty.

Above all Patti was a mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. She created a home with humour and love. Her wisdom, steady presence and smile will be profoundly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Her family would like to express heartfelt gratitude to everyone in the Allan Blair Cancer Centre, all the doctors and nurses at the Regina Pasqua Hospital and at William Booth Grace Hospice, who took such great care of Patti.

We will be having a Private Family Celebration of Life at a later date.
