NEIL THOMAS ROBERTSON September 21, 1955 - February 26, 2015 Our brother and uncle passed away February 26, 2015 at the Deer Lodge Centre. Left to cherish memories are sisters Claire Robertson and Sheila Hawkes; nieces Cindy, Cait-Lyn and Crystal, and nephew Lindsey. Neil had a good sense of humour and loved to play practical jokes. He made the best of what he had and was very kind hearted. He used nicknames for those in his life and they were very well suited to us all. Neil spent many years in Ontario where he loved the outdoors and camping with his sister Claire. Neil's last few years were difficult but he always seemed to manage to pull through and see the brighter side of life. He was so very happy the day he received his scooter, to drive it, tip it over, and get back on leaving his sister in worry and fear. His short stay at Deer Lodge gave us peace knowing he was well cared for by the excellent team of staff. A big hug to special friend Violet. Thank you to Jacques Tardif, Palliative volunteer for your precious friendship. Cremation, Knysh Funeral Home, interment at a later date. Your pain is gone, you are in Mom and Dad's arms, the scooter will ride on...
