Bob passed away peacefully at home on Friday, May 12, 2023 with Judy, his wife and Jeff, his son at his side.
Beloved son of the late Lloyd and the late Monica. Brother of Gayle (late Tony), Randy (Roberta), Late Gary (Gail Gough and her late husband George), Shauna (Tom). Favourite uncle to many nieces and nephews and grandnieces and grandnephews.
Bob will fondly be remembered by the staff and students of the former St. Basil Secondary, where he was the proud principal for ten years. Prior to that, Bob touched the lives of many students at both elementary and high school level. Countless times over the years, former students have expressed gratitude for the inspiration that Bob had provided them. The family wishes to express a special thank you to Dr. Nicki Apostle, Erica, and all the nurses at ParaMed who cared for Bob so well over the past year.
In accordance with Bob's wishes, a private family service will be held.
Arrangements entrusted to the Arthur Funeral Home - Barton & Kiteley Chapel (492 Wellington Street East 705-759-2522). Fond memories and expressions of sympathy may be shared at www.arthurfuneralhome.com for the Barbeau family.
