Obituary
It is with humble and profound sadness that we share the passing of Robert at the Saint John Regional Hospital. He is now at home with his Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, Whom he loved fiercely and served faithfully.
Born in Moncton to Wanda and the late Ronald Trites, he graduated from Moncton High School in 1973 and married his only love, Susan, in September of that same year. Soon after, he felt the call to Christian ministry and after attending Atlantic Baptist College and Acadia Divinity College; he was ordained to ministry in 1998. He faithfully served in churches in Nova Scotia – in Shag Harbor and Woods Harbor – and in New Brunswick – First North River, Lakeville Corner, Lindsay, and Seal Cove on Grand Manan Island.
He leaves behind his wife of 48 years Susan, their sons Matthew (Jennifer) and Jeremy (Jasmine) and grandchildren Lauren, Emily, Alicia, Brianna, Hailey, and Caedmon; Mother Wanda and Mother In Law Elizabeth, his siblings Michael (Linda), Dan (Louise), Janet, Twin Brother Rodney (Terri), Stephen (AnnMarie), Karen (Steven), and Patti (Bruce).
Upon retiring from pastoring, he and Susan settled in Jacksonville and he worked in the trucking industry both in the office and as a driver. He has done many things throughout his lifetime: refereeing hockey games, volunteering on the ambulance, lobster fishing, building houses, automotive mechanics, and all the while loving his family and friends.
Visitation will be held Friday, March 18 from 2-4 and 7-9 pm at the Carleton Funeral Home in Jacksonville, NB. Celebration of Life Service will be Saturday, March 19 at 2:00pm at the Hartland Baptist Church. Service will be Live Streamed on the Hartland Baptist Church Facebook page.
