They eventually settled into a comfortable life, owning a home, and providing a loving environment for their family. After retiring to Florida, Patricia and Ronald traveled the world and created countless cherished memories for their family. She adored her two grandchildren, Theodore “Teddy” Mackay and Boston Mackay, and eagerly anticipated the arrival of another granddaughter (Brynlee Mackay) on the way.
