Robert Frederick Sutherland
1932-2019
Bob passed away on January 7, 2019, in the palliative
care unit at the Saint John Regional Hospital after a four-year battle
with multiple myeloma, fought with determination and
perseverance.
Bob
enjoyed a distinguished forty-year career with Irving Oil, during
which time he managed the company’s operations for Nova Scotia and
Newfoundland. An outstanding athlete in his
youth, he was selected to sail in the 1952 Olympics but instead
pitched the Shelburne Loyalists to winning the provincial
championships.
Blessed with an amazing constitution and life force,
he lived a full and engaged life and never lost his charm, great wit
and sense of humour. Bob was born in Shelburne,
Nova Scotia and maintained a lifelong interest in his
birthplace. He found great pleasure in
simple rituals: friendships nurtured over
early morning phone calls, walks at dawn on wooded trails with a
succession of golden retrievers, paddling his red canoe, his beloved
Yankees and a lifelong interest and promotion of country music.
Nothing brought him more pleasure than holding forth in front of a
roaring fire at the cottage in Clyde River with family and friends
gathered, especially in retirement
years.
Our
father may have been defined by his career and interests but for his
family he will be remembered most as a loving husband to Katherine Ann
(née MacLennan), devoted and proud father of Marisa and Ian
and engaging grandfather « Papa » to Trinity and Jack
Turnbull. He is also survived by
sister-in-law Mary Jane MacLennan and husband John Webb, of Vancouver,
and nieces and nephews on both coasts. He was predeceased by his
parents, Mima & Robert Sutherland, and sisters Mary and
Margaret.
The family wishes to express their gratitude to Dr.
Postuma, Dr. Reiman and the oncology team, the KV Extramural and Dr.
Kim in Yarmouth, NS. Our love and gratitude are extended to our
mother, Katherine Ann, for her extraordinary care of our
father.
Arrangements are under the care of
Brenan’s Funeral Home, 111 Paradise Row,
Saint John, N.B. (634-7424). Cremation has taken place and
at Bob’s request, there will be no service. Interment will take place
when the family is together in Shelburne, this
spring. A celebration of Bob’s life
will take place at Shadow Lawn Inn, Rothesay NB, on Saturday, February
2, from 2 to 4 pm. For those who wish, donations may be made to the
Salvation Army, Saint John Regional Hospital Oncology Unit or KV
Extramural. Online condolences can be made at
