Bob Leroy Riley November 8 2022

It is with great sadness the family of Bob Leroy Elmer Riley announce his passing on November 8, 2022 at the age of 84.
Bob will be remembered by his wife Joyce, children Robert and Wendy, grandchildren, Adam (Kirsten), Joe (Sam), Becca (Loren), James, Amanda (Matt), his beloved great granddaughters, Harper and Lola and brother Lyle.
Bob was predeceased by his mother Bernice, father Elmer and brothers Chuck, Doug, Laurie and Terry.
Born in Okotoks, he spent the first 10 years of his life in Foremost and Nemiskam, Alberta. In 1948, he moved to Edmonton with his mother and 4 brothers. He was an athlete and loved all sports. He played tennis, football and basketball and ran track for Eastglen High School. He loved to golf and curl as an adult and was the President of the Sherwood Park Curling Club and served on the Board of Belvedere Golf course, one of his favorite places in the world.
Bob and Joyce met at 14 in 1952 and dated until 1958 when they got married. Robert was born in 1960 and Wendy in 1962. In 1972 they moved to Sherwood Park from Edmonton and resided in the same home until 2013 when the moved into a retirement community. Bob’s career in advertising spanned decades, first with Yellow Pages and then with Media Plus, when he finally retired in 2006. He was very successful and earned may awards and trips during his career. He always loved his job, and felt grateful to have a career that he so enjoyed.
He loved his grandchildren and spent many hours watching them play hockey, football, baseball, basketball, soccer and ringette and is known by many in Sherwood Park as Grampa Bob. The last few years he delivered Meals on Wheels and loved visiting with the old people as he called them.
When he realized the end was near, he was so sad he would not see his great granddaughters celebrate their first Christmas. He didn’t go easy, he was stubbornly independent to the end. Thankfully he had a full life, and lots of family that loved him.
