Just found the site! Robert was a terrific friend from when we first met in Chicago for community organizing. Bob baptized our daughter Suzanne 45 years ago in our apartment in Toronto. His spirit was a gift to all of us. Greetings of peace to Carol Ann
And to your adult children.

I do think of you from to time, and so I want to express my deepest condolences to you and to your family . May God be with you all during this time of loss.

I first met Robert about 25 years ago through his work with Amnesty International in Saint John. He was always someone who had time to defend human rights, to oppose war, hunger, and poverty. Let's celebrate his long and productive life.

Deeply saddened to hear this news about Robert. I worked with Robert for many years at the Department of Social Development. He was a kind and caring man and had a great sense of humor. He was a dedicated volunteer at the Fundy Funeral Home and I used to see him often riding through town on his bicycle. To Robert's family....my sincere sympathy on your loss.

So very sorry about the loss of your father. We in the family feel the loss too as he has always been a mainstay in the family. We could count on him to be there for us when we needed him in times of happiness and in times of sorrow. We were glad that he was surrounded by your love when he passed onto his heavenly reward to join the other members of his family. Love and thoughts are with you.

Sad note to our day on this news. Our prayers are with you all during this time. Robert taught me to make bread in 1982 which I still do and think of him often as I make it. He knew so well the meaning of bread for this life and the life to come. He is at that banquet now enjoying the fruit of his life, so well spent. God bless him and you all. Much love, Jim and Wendy
