Predeceased by his parents Clifford and Ida and son Bill. Bob leaves to mourn his daughter Caitlin (Jason), sister Maureen, twin sister Cheryl (Rick), as well as niece Carly and nephew Russell. Bob spent all his summers at Grand Beach. He attended University of Manitoba and graduated with a degree in civil engineering, along with long time friends from West Kildonan. After his graduation, Bob proudly worked for CNR in Northern Ontario, Northern Quebec, Brazil, and Winnipeg until his illness forced early retirement. Bob will always be remembered for his commitment to his family, love of working on fast cars and the family cat Pudger.
