Born on April 5th, 1919 in Durban, Manitoba, to pioneering parents, Richard Thomas Bateman and Mary Anne (Minnie) nee Ferguson. Daisy was born and raised on the homestead cleared by her father in the late 1800s. The farm remained in the Bateman family until earlier this year.

Eva lived to 103 years and Bessie to 110 & ½ years. Mom always said she wanted to live at least as long as Eva, and God spared her for a month beyond.
Daisy is survived by 19 grandchildren, 38 great grandchildren, 4 great, great grandchildren, as well as nieces and nephews too numerous to mention by name.
Always a hard worker, Daisy sewed and gardened to add to her earnings as a stitcher for 26 years at the Bata Shoe Factory in Campbellford, while raising her family.
Proud of her prairie roots, Daisy made many trips across the west in her Volkswagen Camper van to visit with family & friends.
She was a talented & largely self-taught seamstress, needlewoman, craftperson, gardener & handywoman. 4 generations of her offspring have treasured items, handcrafted specifically & lovingly for them by Mom/Grandma/Nana/Nanny Patrick.
