After going to Broadcasting College in Saskatoon, Pat moved to the West Coast and spent ten years working in radio on Vancouver Island (Port Alberni, Parksville, Nanaimo) before moving to Lethbridge in 2007.

Pat has been a part of the Lethbridge community for the last number of years and has gotten to know many people through his job in the local media. He joined Cornerstone in 2016 and has had an interest in the funeral business since he was a teen.

He values family as being one of the most important things in life. Helping other families in their time of need is very fulfilling. One of his passions is leading the choir as Cantor at Saints Peter & Paul Ukrainian Catholic Church.

Pat has learned a lot during his time with Cornerstone and appreciates the dedication, time, care, and respect all staff take when performing their daily duties. Pat is truly honoured to serve.
