Robert worked with the Moncton Fire
Department as a dedicated fireman for 24 years before his retirement.
He was proud to have served his community and be able to help others
when needed. He established Terry’s Place restaurant in Hopewell Cape
in memory of his son,Terry, who passed away due to a car accident in
1989. He liked socializing with family and friends and going for
coffee in the early mornings with his « coffee buddies ».
After he retired from the Fire Department he drove trucks for
Universal and East Coast International (Brentwood) as he always liked
to keep busy. One of his favorite pastimes was driving – anywhere and
everywhere – and especially through the back roads of his precious
Albert County. His main priority in his life was his family and being
a great husband, father and grampy. He was so proud of his daughter
and grandsons and was always there to help when needed. He loved Mabel
with all his heart and only wanted the best for her. We can take
solace that he is now having a great reunion with those who have gone
before him, especially his son Terry, his brothers, and his best
friend, Norm Crossman.
