<div itemprop="description">HOEY, Patrick <br />October 27, 1956 - April 5, 2015 - Hydro Ottawa (Director of Regulatory Affairs) <br /> <br />It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of the sudden passing of Patrick James Hoey, fiercely devoted family man, avid golfer, and lover of fine wines. <br /> <br />Patrick leaves behind his loving wife, Suzanne (nee B&eacute;langer), and their sons Andrew, Brent, and Eric, each of whom made him so proud. He is survived by his sisters Mary Anne (Greg) and Jane (late Pat), father-in-law, Jean B&eacute;langer, and brothers-in-law Michel (Danielle), Pierre (late Jacinta), Robert (Cathy), Marc (Trish) as well as many nieces and nephews. Patrick will also be fondly remembered by many friends and colleagues. <br /> <br />He is predeceased by his father, Bernard and his mother, Geraldine, who was definitely the better golfer. They taught him how to be fiercely proud of his children. <br /> <br />Patrick's absence is already deeply felt, as he was truly one of a kind. His sarcastic wit was rivalled only by his deep compassion and care for others. Although he would be the first to make a clever joke at your expense, he would also be the first to offer a helping hand in a time of need. Patrick taught us all a great deal about the importance of family and the value of hard work. He is loved and missed. <br /> <br />Friends are invited to join the family at the Taylor Funeral Home (524 Davis Drive, Newmarket, 905-898-2100) from 2-4pm and 6-8pm on Wednesday, April 8th. A Funeral Mass will be held Thursday, April 9th at 11 am at St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church (17955 Leslie St. Newmarket). <br /> <br />In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the ABLE Network or the Special Olympics - Newmarket. As a tribute, we suggest opening that nice bottle of wine you've been saving and enjoying a glass with loved ones, since every day we have with those we love is an occasion to be celebrated.</div>
