Passed away peacefully on June 19th in Barrie, Ontario, at the age of 77, surrounded by his children. Predeceased by his wife of 35 years, Verla (nee Losee). Father of Allison (Ron) and Jason (Suzanne). Proud Grandpa to Alanna, Madison, Cole, Carson and Cameron. Brother to Fred, Maureen, and the late Edna. Companion to Carol.
Much gratitude and thank you to the doctors and staff at RVH Cancer Palliative Care in Barrie, and Hospice Simcoe for their exceptional and compassionate care. Bob dedicated over 30 plus years to Kodak Canada before retiring in 1992. Bob loved fishing and gardening and he was happiest at his cottage in Eastern Ontario surrounded by family, friends, and his beloved Labrador 'Clancy' while listening to the Blue Jays or his favorite cd's on the deck overlooking the lake.
Following a private interment, family and friends are invited to attend a Celebration of Bob's Life at York Curling Club, Newmarket, on Saturday, July 6th from 3:00-6:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Hospice Simcoe, Barrie, www.hospicesimcoe.ca.
