I grew up across the street from Bob in Coniston. He was just a terrific friend and neighbour. We shared so many good times together including a memorable family trip to the East Coast. Bob was truly a good man and friend and his presence will be missed.

Sorry to see a very old friend in the obituary column. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other but I do remember our times when we were growing up.
This brings back a lot of good memories.

Judy: We were profoundly saddened by the news of Bob’s passing. We are holding you close in our thoughts and our prayers as you navigate this difficult time. The world will certainly not be the same without his quick wit and keen sense of humour. We will continue to cherish our memories of him, especially Glen, … Oh the mischief and chuckles he and Spotty shared in their years working together at Falconbridge!!! Spotty was a wonderful person who brought so much joy to people’s lives!
