He will also be missed by many nieces and nephews who meant the world to him. Bob was predeceased by his mom and dad; and three sisters, Muriel, Elsie and Marguerite. Bob grew up in the North End and completed all of his schooling there. After school he spent a short time working for John Erizinger then joined the RCAF when the war broke out. Bob spent four years serving his country. On his return from the war, he was employed by the Manitoba Telephone System where he enjoyed 39 very happy and successful years, retiring in 1984. His greatest love, next to his family, was his cottage at Ingolf, ON. He couldn't get enough of it. He loved swimming, water skiing and teaching the kids all these things until they could do it better than him. Bob also loved spending time in his workshop, tinkering with odds and ends and repairing anything that had broken. His workshop acted as a one-stop shop for anyone looking for a part to finish a job. Bob loved to dance and as a young man was an avid roller skater. He was a great joke and storyteller and would love to get together with friends for a card game, a good drink and many laughs.
