ROBERT (BOB) COLLINS
July 17, 1946 – May 7, 2022
COLLINS, Robert Bernard (Bob) passed away at Sunnybrook Hospital on Saturday, May 7, 2022 in his 76th year. Beloved husband of Karen for 31 years. Cherished stepdad to Tara (Owen), Bryan (Angela), Lori (Joel) & Kymberlie (Justin). Much loved Grandpa to Elysa, Caden, Carson, Dailyn, Paisley, & Everly. Fondly remembered by mother-in-law Margaret McDavid. Pre-deceased by his Mum & Dad (Violet & Ivor) and sisters Susan & Christine. Bob dearly loved his daughters, Melanie & Sharleen. He will be sorely missed by his brother-in laws, nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Willie & Reba will not forget their Paw-Pa. He was loved by all and will be missed by many.
Bob will be remembered for his infectious chuckle, his kind heart and very large collection of Harley Davidson motorcycles – none of which he could ride. Bob was an avid dart player, pool player, karaoke singer and long-time member of the Royal Canadian Legion. He loved country music and enjoyed playing along with his spoons. Aquamation has taken place at the Newcastle Funeral Home.
The celebration of Bob’s life will be held Wednesday, May 11, 2022 from 6:00p.m. – 8:00p.m. at The New Massey House Restaurant (27 King Avenue East, Newcastle). If so desired, memorial donations may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, the Kidney Foundation or Diabetes Canada.
