Obituary for Robert Frank Golba
In his 78th year, Bob died peacefully surrounded by love on October 15, 2019. Deeply loved by his wife, Ginny Gibson, his daughters, Melanie Golba (Alvaro Venturelli) and Heather Golba (predeceased, 2017) (David Baillie). Bob also warmly welcomed his step-daughters, Christine Gibson and Michele Gibson into his life. He was so proud of his grandchildren, Maia, Luca, Leo, Darcy and Daphne, was dearly loved by Judi & Jim Miller, his sister and brother in law, and was predeceased by his parents, Frank and Janet Golba, and brother Peter.
Bob was a Chartered Accountant by profession, but was happiest spending time with family and friends at The Cottage, on the tennis court, and travelling with Ginny and friends on trips across Europe, Canada, and spending winters in Florida, Arizona and Mexico. Bob brought joy and laughter to our lives with his joie de vivre, while also appreciating the simplicity and serenity of Buddhist philosophy.
We cannot begin to thank the very special staff of Unit 2 of Alexander Place, Waterdown for the loving care provided to Bob and our family as dementia slowly took him away from us.
Friends and family are invited to join in a Celebration of Life for Bob at the Rosedale Tennis Club, 42 Lawrence Rd., Hamilton, ON, L8M 3E3 (in Gage Park), on Sunday, November 24, 2019, from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. We encourage you to remember his laughter, his sparkling eyes and his gentle kindness, and if you wish, make a donation to your favourite charity in his memory.
