There are people that come into our lives that you instantly like being around Bob you were one of those people.When I started my operator career at shell you quickly took me under your wing 
You were my first operator when I began 
You handled every error I made in the beginning with grace and humour. We quickly became good friends and had many good times with both our families together You introduced me to fish creek and I returned there with my family many times 
To me the thing important in life is to be loved to have loved and to be the kind of person people like to be around 
Bob you were that person 
Rest  in peace old Friend

Your rest is well deserved

J'ai eu la chance de travailler sur la même équipe que Robert pendant plusieurs années. Pour les amis, c'était Bébert. Il avait un charisme naturel, un rassembleur. Il était d'agréable compagnie, je n'en garde que de bons souvenirs.

J'ai eu la chance de travailler avec Robert pour plusieurs années. Il était un personnage en lui même, très respecter de ses coéquipiers par son leadership et son calme dans les moments importants. Il avait une joie de vivre qui était contagieuse, il aimait beaucoup les histoires autour d'un bon repas de groupe. Robert était comme un père de famille pour nous. Merci Bob pour tous ces beaux souvenirs partagés...
Toutes mes condoléances à la famille et aux proches de Robert.

We are going to miss you Bob, but you will be forever in our hearts. Fish Creek will never feel the same.

Robert tu étais un vrai gars d’équipe. Tu avais toujours le sourire et tu trouvais toujours le moyen de nous faire rire. Tu aimais tes compagnons de travail et tous t’aimaient. Je suis triste de ton départ et désolé pour ta famille et tes proches. Nous sommes chanceux d’avoir pu te côtoyer pendant ces nombreuses années chez Shell. Bon voyage dans cette nouvelle aventure!

This picture is of Robert and my great-niece Victoria. Taken in 2015 at my mom's 80th birthday party. He traveled the great distance to be there that day. It was one of the highlights of the party to see him.  He was captivated. His loving tender ways I know we're going to miss. Fly high Robert

J’ai travaillé plusieurs années avec Robert à la raffinerie Shell, j’en garde un très bon souvenir, il était toujours gentils et aimait bien jouer des tours et aimait la vie.
Mes sincères condoléances à toute la famille

Toutes mes condoléances à la famille et aux proches de Robert.
Il a été un super compagnon de travail, avec qui il faisait bon passer du temps.
Sa joie de vivre et la facilitée qu'il avait à gérer toutes les situations
sont les marques que Bob aura laissé à tous ceux qui auront eu la chance de passer du temps avec lui.

Aug 2001…swimming & drinking with my Papabear (Bill Redfield) in Saginaw Bay! Thank you for the transport & loving support all these years! Say hi to my daddy for me. XOXO🥰

I’ll always remember our pontoon rides exploring the lake & all the hidden bays. Coveting the homes we will never afford. People watching as boats went by Fish Creek Bay. Thank you to you & your family for having such a loving & fun camp to rest my head & heart when I needed it.

This was Joshy & Kyle canoeing out to the rock across the way. I’m sure we were doing something productive…aka sitting in a chair watching with love & laughter! I think this trip I was actually staying at your camp the weekend. I will fondly remember all our weekends together! Thanks for always being an amazing support to Kyle & showing him how to be a good man!

I’ll never forget our times in the Fall when the lake was quiet & cold. But camp was warm with love & a VCR with lots of movies to watch together! 

I will forever miss your bearhugs!💖

Our sincerest condolences to Nancy, James, Adrianna, Anthony and family. We were so happy to meet Mr Bourgeault( he said that was his father's name)  this summer and spend a week with him, Nancy and James  at your family camp. My grandson Tucker was hobbling around with a cast and he was graciously allowed to call you Pepe. Thank you for welcoming us that week. It was an honor to meet you. We heard stories from your career, your life and your jokes ( had to cover Tucks ears for some of those). Rest easy sir. Sending prayers to your family.

Robert (Bebert) was a co-worker for many years and à good friend with à heart of gold. Fond memories come to mind when I see his picture. A great loss indeed.

Nina and I have a lifetime of memories with you up at THE CAMP. It won’t be the same without you. I love you Uncle Robert.

I am truly sorry for the loss of your wonderful dad, brother, pépé,  uncle, cousin and friend. I pray for divine comfort for the immeasurable grief you’re are going through. Hold the sweet memories of him close to your hearts. 
My heart is broken too. I loved him so much. I’ll miss his smile, laugh & sense of humor. 
 I wish I had a Passport. I would be there with all of you.  
I remember going to visit Bobby & Sue in Montreal. We spent hours dancing in the basement to Chubby Checker, playing twister & enjoying french pastries, time spent at Fish Creek,  and many holidays in Massachusetts with us.
May God keep you in His loving arms. Prayers for peace & healing to you & all of your family.
