Where there was laughter you would always find Bob at the center of it. A true gentleman of style and refinement without a shred of pretense, passed away. He is celebrated and survived by his wife and best friend, June. Together they achieved and succeeded in business and championed many charities in the Edmonton area. Bob graduated from Business and spent his early career as a division manager for TIP TOP Tailors, Sears Canada, Johnstone Walkers, and June’s House of Fashion founded by Bob and June. He ended his working career at West End Gallery. Bob was generous with his time serving on boards and charities such as Downtown Economic Development Edmonton, Board of Government House, President of the Effort Auction,
and ran a fundraising campaign for the Canadian Cancer Society for 20 years.
Bob is survived by June, sister; Donna Ahlefeld (Ben), son; Brad Kerrison (Sherry), daughter; Tamara Baltzan (Chris), grandchildren; Ashley, Mike and Benjamin, and great-grandchildren; Alexis, Mckayla and Logan. He was predeceased by parents; Leslie & Lil Kerrison, brother; Jack Kerrison, and great-grandson; Aaden Blackburn.
