1949-2026

It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Patrick “Pat” George Mann on May 7, 2026, in Saint Andrews, NB

Born on August 5, 1949, in Montreal, Pat lived a life centered around family, community, friendship, and service. He was predeceased by his beloved wife of 42 years, Elizabeth Anne Ireland Mann, with whom he shared a deep love of the sea and the life they built together in Saint Andrews-by-the-Sea. The two were often seen riding together in their motorcycle sidecar during local parades, bringing smiles wherever they went.

Pat was predeceased by his parents, Charles and Rosemary (Kidd) Mann.

He will be lovingly remembered by his sons, Paul Ireland (Shanna) and Paddy Ireland; his siblings Katherine “Muffin” (Chris), Keren (late Alan), and Craig (Nancy); as well as many nieces and nephews and numerous great-nieces and great-nephews.

A true fixture in the Town of Mount Royal community, Pat devoted countless hours to coaching, refereeing, supervising sports programs, and volunteering. He also worked as the Recreation Director of Montreal West, where he made a lasting impact on generations of families and young athletes.

Pat had many passions throughout his life, including motorcycles, trains, photography, and time spent with friends. After moving east with Lizzie, following their shared love of the ocean, he continued his commitment to community service as a town councilor in Saint Andrews-by-the-Sea. He quickly formed many close friendships and became well known for his regular coffee outings and welcoming nature.

Pat will be remembered for his kindness, humour, captivating storytelling, generosity, and unwavering dedication to the people and communities he loved. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

In keeping with Patrick’s wishes there will be no visiting or funeral service.
