It is with sadness we announce the peaceful passing of Charles Patrick, age 86, of Amherst, formerly of Scotland.  Charlie passed away peacefully at the Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre on Thursday, January 16, 2020.

Born in Coalburn, Lanarkshire, Scotland, Charles was a son of the late William and Margaret (Pickens) Patrick. 

Charlie worked for the postal service in Scotland during his working years.  After the passing of his first wife June Harrison, and his retirement, he moved to Amherst, NS and married Ann Patrick.  After her passing, he married Hulda Smith, of Oxford.  Most recently, Charlie volunteered at the Cumberland Regional Health Care Centre.

He will be dearly missed by his daughter Linda (Linda Carroll) Patrick, of Scotland and son William (Billy) and his wife Jane, Switzerland; several step-children; special friend Jeanne Martin.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the Jones Family Funeral Centre, 70 Church St., Amherst, NS (902-667-8777) where cremation has taken place.  A graveside service will be held in the Amherst Cemetery in the summer.
