Bob leaves behind his beloved kitty cat fur baby Milo, as well as coffee buddies, in-laws, nieces and nephews. A big thank you to all staff at SAH that helped care for Bob over his last 2 months, everything was appreciated, and while Bob was able, he had expressed that everyone he encountered and the care he got was excellent.

At Bob's wishes there will be no services. Anyone wanting to make a donation in Bob's memory, he would have loved to see it go to the Humane Society - or any other animal rescue. He had a big soft spot for all animals. Arrangements entrusted to Northwood Funeral Home Cremation and Reception Centre (942 Great Northern Rd, 705-945-7758). 

Safe travels on your next journey Bob.
