He is lovingly remembered by his wife, Beverly, of 72 years; daughters, Jeannie and Shelley, sons-in-law, Tom, Lyle, and Ralph; 9 grandchildren; 18 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his son, Larry; daughter, Kathy; parents, Lawrence and Jean; sister, Betty; and brothers, Leonard, Lester, Clifford, and Jim.

Robert was born in Calgary, raised in the Cremona area and in later years travelled around Alberta working on oil rigs and then later came back home working for Mountainview County grading roads within the community. He remained in the Cremona area till his passing.

He had the passion for horses which led him into horse racing, horse training, and many trips trail riding with friends.

He was a very creative and talented hobbyist, including welding horseshoes and bridals into tables and lamps, building wagons and in recent years making blankets as gifts and donations for local charities.

He'll always be remembered for his sense of humor and generosity, and especially the love for his family. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends and neighbors, and all those whose lives he touched.
