ROBERT (BOB) WICKENS
January 31, 1957 - June 2, 2020
Bob was predeceased by his parents, Tom and Phyllis Wickens, brother Bill Wickens, father-in-law Harold Strachan, and brother-in-law Calvin Strachan. He is survived by his wife Linda, and sons, Jason (Taylor), Matt, and Shawn (Bentley), his brother Gary Wickens (Colleen), sister Kim Fines, sister-in-law Judy Wickens, mother-in-law Florence Strachan, brother-in-law Murray Strachan (Caroline), sister-in-law Judy Rahn (Greg), sister-in-law Evie Strachan, as well as nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
Bob was born and raised in Winnipeg and lived in various places in Manitoba throughout his life. Wherever he was, Bob always brought a friendly face and a great sense of humour. He loved watching the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the Winnipeg Jets, and also loved watching his sons grow up playing sports.
A celebration of Bob's life will be held at a later date when it is safe to do so, and all family and friends are able to attend.
Donations can be made in Bob's name to Diabetes Canada or to KidSport Canada.
