The late Patricia Pierre was a true humanitarian

Jul 22, 2021 Letters

Dear Editor,

It is with sadness and gratitude that I express a tribute to Ms. Patricia Pierre who has passed on to her heavenly abode. Patricia, popularly known as Aunty Pat, was a true humanitarian who cared for the less fortunate and sick. I have had many opportunities to accompany her at humanitarian and religious activities. She gave her life for the care and concern of others. Through her friendly and humourous demeanor, she touched and inspired many persons. She had the gift of relating to children, youth and old without reservation. One of her outstanding contributions to humanity is that of her care for children who were ill. She reached out to them and their parents through listening, praying and caring for them. She has touched persons across the country because she enjoyed travelling to the hinterlands. She was also an outstanding photographer and had excellent advice to offer to the mobile photographer generation on how to get the perfect shot. I can boldly say, Aunty Pat lived a true Christian life and lived it to the fullest. She will be remembered as a ‘mother’ to many, especially the less fortunate children. Guyana has lost a gem. I am grateful that our paths crossed.

Yours truly,
Jerri Dias
