Meet Pat. Pat enjoys being with friends and family and especially loves supporting and cheering on her grandchildren’s involvement in sports. She likes helping others and those who are less fortunate. Pat has been a Sendial Volunteer in Nanaimo’s Port Place store for 15 years; first as a Shopper, then as a Phoner and now as Captain, while filling in both Phoning and Shopping as needed. She likes helping customers, thinks of the Volunteers as a happy family and enjoys working with Thrifty Foods’ staff. A neighbor Pat hardly knew became a Sendial customer and was having difficulty obtaining a flyer. Pat’s husband started providing one to the neighbor, which was the start of a relationship and they are now good friends. Pat believes that Sendial is wonderful, helping customers to remain independent. She also enjoys helping by screening prospective Sendial Volunteers. Pat is thankful to Thrifty Foods for offering Sendial and for the kindness shown to Volunteers and customers.
