Bob always loved and played music. That passion led him west where he worked as a roadie for bands in the 70's and early 80's
His favorite home was in the north of the province. His dog Jethro, his constant companion
His warm and caring nature led him to working with Indigenous communities in Saskatchewan. Bob had the ability to teach with kindness and motivate his students to see their full potential, overcome obstacles, and move forward in life
In later years, Bob returned to Ontario to work as a Life Skills Coach in Hamilton and to aid our Mother.
He was an avid reader, becoming somewhat of an encyclopedia on most things. He enjoyed many a discussion on history, politics and humanity.
He is survived by sisters Judy Erl and Liz Swiderski and their families. His greatest source of pride were his nieces and nephews.
His kind heart will stay with us forever
