Stuart BROOKS Obituary

Hi Jen, Fran Pip and Sam. Very sorry to hear about Pat. Much enjoyed my time staying with your family and working with Pat in Oamaru. Thinking of your lovely family at this time.

In loving memory of Pat. The person who we always trusted with any of our 4-legged friends for as long as I can remember. Your lovely, witty and patient character will be hugely missed by those that know and love you. RIP.

Pat it's with great sadness I heard about your passing
Thinking back I would of first meet you just as I started working in north Otago when I was 17 over the years we meet many times mainly with vet appointments and on farm visits
Recall you going out of your way to always help
You were always willing to give advice over the phone when needed
Even when we moved to akaroa and my newfound Sam had problems you were the person I turned to for advice
Since you moved up here you have been there not just as a vet but also as a friend showing kindness to me with my ongoing mental health problems a listening ear and support
You will understand that I can't make it to you send off
Your kindness support advice jokes and laughter will never be forgotten
You were a great and respected vet wonderful person and someone I have the privilege of calling a friend
You will be missed but never forgotten
You helped and changed so many people's life's
You will be missed by so many

Pat you were an amazing vet especially with the horses. I remember you and Graham leaping over the fence to escape from our black mare who had great delight in tormenting the male species. My dad had such high regard for you as one of his students at Massey and when we came to north otago he told me to use you as our vet and no one else. You will be sadly missed and will be remembered always. Love to the family
