In Loving Memory of

Audrey “Patricia” German née Bell

13th March 1931 Kingston, Jamaica – 9th March 2022 Binissalem, Mallorca
 
Whilst we are sorry not to look forward to enjoying any more conversations with Patricia or appreciate her wisdom she so generously shared, we are happy that she lived a full and inspiring life.  She has left an impact on all those who knew her and each of you will have a story to tell.  
 
We invite you to celebrate her life with your memories and stories of all she meant to you.  Tell us which of her qualities you most admired or from what you most benefitted by knowing her.  And then mourn her passing by making a promise to enjoy your life as she did – with a deep love for God and for all her family – her blood family and friends; her students in Jamaica, Wales and beyond; her beautiful Brahma Kumari family; the friends and neighbours she made wherever she lived (Jamaica, England, Wales, Nigeria, Mallorca) and everyone she met, no matter how briefly.
 
Please join us on Monday 14th March at 12h,(CET – Central European Time).  
 
Please come into the Zoom room 5 minutes before and make sure your microphones are OFF.  You may wish to find a quiet corner, light a candle and have a photo nearby.  You should plan not to be disturbed for an hour whilst we celebrate her life in ceremony.

I didn’t know Patricia personally however, listening to her wise words was always a pleasure. Time with her, on line, was always time well spent, listening and learning. She was a calming, peaceful presence, never to be forgotten.  RIP Patricia you will be missed and I look forward to meeting you in person one day in the next room.  All my love Wendy xx…

Patsy Germany came to Manchester High School in Mandeville Jamaica with her husband Raymond (Gerry) who was the new headmaster in 1959. She was my Spanish teacher,  She was kind and gentle and as a young mother was  a good role model for us girls. She ran the tuck shop and also organised ‘Day hops’, Saturday afternoon parties for the senior students in the school hall as well as trips to the beach for the Spanish club. We always knew when she was near because we could hear her flip flops as she walked along the school corridor. After leaving school I always sought news of the Germans and was on Gerry’s email list. I met up with both Gerry and Patsy in London in 2008 and  kept in touch with them. After Gerry’s death in 2012 I remember spending a day with Patsy where she cooked me a delicious Jamaican meal of ackee and salt fish with plantain and green bananas. She shared her memories of the wonderful, exciting and sometimes challenging times that she and Gerry had experienced in Nigeria, Wales and London. Patsy told me about the Brahma Kumaris and the charity work she was involved in. We…

Dear cousins,   My deepest condolences on the passing of your mom.  Without a doubt Aunt Patsy was my favourite aunt in the world.  A person with so much vitality, love and caring ….one just never believes she  could  leave us!  I remember so fondly the first time I met all of you and of course Aunt Patsy…Wales ….the summer of the gogglegate affair!  Celina and I were welcomed with open arms by your Mom.  I remember how cool she was , always with a smile , driving that VW van at high speeds through the country roads,  breaking up fights between Bryn and Deuan, stopping Pedro from eating me, making sure Monty and Grandma were ok, making sure everyone that summer had activities (Calico, white water kayaking, picnics in the moors and on and on).  What a force she was…  is !  For years to come I would drop in and stay at the house in Hampton, and even Mallorca.  I was the capitalist cousin from Canada that would debate,  mostly with Gerry, Capitalism versus Socialism.  With Aunt Patsy our conversations were mostly about spirituality and the Brahma Kumaris.  I loved those talks  and Patsy always  welcomed my…

They say people come into your life for a reason, lessons to learn, wisdom to convey; Patricia was one of my most positive experiences in this present called life.  I have learnt so much from her & will do my best to live by & share her teachings.  She is the absolute example of unconditional serving, helping to uplift the spirit & believe all is possible. She sits close in my thoughts & I will miss her Wise Woman Conversations dearly. Much love & sparkles Patsy as you continue to shine on your new journey ✨  Su x…

Thanks for creating this space to share our deepest gratitude to Patricia- who inspired me with her warmth, insight, and wisdom on many occasions, especially during the Conversations with Wise Women and over tea (and cakes). I just wish I had spent more time with her… and ironically she offered me a “time” gift  card…to relax into time- during a particularly busy point in my life. Over the years  Patricia and Glynis also provided generous  support to PermaMed and Jóvenes en Permacultura. You have been an inspiration and light to us- the light shines on… Thank you!…

My family and I met Patsy and Jerry German in London at Datar residence in 1985. I found her to be a very warm and generous person. I met her several times after that whenever I visited Datars. She always had time to talk to me and we sometimes discussed about her visits to Brahma kumari center in India. She was a very calm person and a wise woman. I wish her well for her journey beyond.  God bless her soul. Om Shanti!…

Patsy was always such a warm and generous presence and it was a pleasure to know her. She made you feel special, and always took a keen interest in you as an individual. We were sorry not to see more of her in recent years but had such a wonderful time visiting Mallorca in 2019. A huge character who will be much missed….

Happy memories of Mrs German (as she was always known to me) teaching me at St Winefredes Convent High School for girls in Holywell. A graceful lady who was infinitely patient with this particular dunce of a student.  God bless you and a life well lived. Sending love to the German family. …

It is with a heavy heart that I write my memories of Patsy. She was the wife of my ‘boss’ and friend Gerry German and for the seven years I worked as his secretary the German family became my family. Patsy included me and my children in events that they attended and we were always welcomed at their home. I can still see her striding down the corridors of the school going to her classes or going about her other endeavors. Patsy was such a down to earth person and was loved and admired by those with whom she came in contact. We shall miss her and our sympathy goes out to her children, grandchildren and the other members of the family as you mourn her loss. Rest In Peace dear friend….

Patsy had the incredible ability to be interested in everyone and make them feel special. I feel honoured to have been able to call her my Aunty. She gave me unconditional love and acceptance always. Peace and love from your family in Wales ❤️…

Goodbye to my wonderful Auntie Patsy, thanks for all the wonderful times we had together. She always welcomed us into her home and I felt cocooned in her love and joy. Her legacy will be the endless light and wisdom she gave to everyone who meet her. Thinking of you all xxx…
