It is with great sorrow that we announce that Robert (Bob) William Neave has gone home to be with the Lord after 90 years on this Earth. He passed away peacefully at home early Tuesday June 29, 2021 with his wife Shirley (nee Near) of 69 years by his side. Father to Bill, Terry (Deb), Linda, Bob (Alana), Marie (Geoff) and to many foster children back in the day. He was a Papa to 11 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. As per Bob's wishes, there will be no funeral service but we will have a celebration of life at a later date.
We will miss our Husband, Father, Papa and Pastor very much but we know that he is with the Lord playing with his trains and tinkering around while watching over all his family and friends.
We would like to share a quote that we have found comforting during these times; “I am your God, I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you...” - Isaiah 41:10. The family would like to thank the Emergency Services and Elliot Lake Funeral Chapel & Cremation Centre for helping us during this time.
