Galbraith, Robert ‘Rob’ Todd
September 5th, 2020
June 21, 1982 – September 5, 2020
Peacefully and surrounded by his family, on Saturday September 5, 2020 in his 39th year, after a courageous, 16-month battle with colon cancer. Loving husband and best friend of Kristen, and Daddy to Blake Peter, 2½, and Tessa Robyn, 9 months. His family was his absolute pride and joy. Cherished son of Doug & Tree Galbraith, and brother to Scott & Sonya and Dan & Caity. Affectionately known as silly Uncle Herb to Charlotte, Emmy & Nicholas, Avery & Sullivan and newborn Addison. Herb was loved by many family and friends. He touched and brightened lives with his love and presence. Beloved son-in-law of Michael & Marilyn Scott, and brother-in-law to Taryn & Joe Geurts, Jordan & Meghan Scott and Steven Scott. Rob delighted in watching his children play and grow. Although his time with them was short, his faith was strong and his legacy will last a lifetime. Everyone loved ‘Herbie’; he was kind, thoughtful and very social with a competitive spirit. He made many friends over the years through school, hockey, baseball and later softball. The family would like to thank all of the doctors and nurses at LHSC, the London Regional Cancer Program, VON Middle-Elgin Site (Cherryhill) and St. Joseph’s Hospice – London. The support of Holy Family and St. George Parishes has been greatly appreciated. Finally, a sincere thank you to our families, friends and neighbours for their prayers and support through this difficult time. In lieu of flowers, Rob and Kristen request that contributions be made to the Bethanys Hope Foundation, where both serve on the Foundation’s Board of Directors. Visitation will be held on Thursday, September 10, 2020 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. and on Friday, September 11, 2020 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 – 9:00 p.m., at WESTVIEW FUNERAL CHAPEL, 709 Wonderland Road North, London.
