I have not seen Bob since I shared a few great years of our youth with the Fort York Guard, he was always such a great friend to work and play with. I was very saddened to learn of his passsing, my sincere sympathies to his family.

Bobby was a good friend at Leaside and was a hoot to be with. He will be greatly missed.

My deepest condolences to Bob's family and loved ones. Bob and I were never close friends and I hadn't seen him in recent years, but I am very glad to have known him. He remains one of the people I remember best from LHS, an intelligent, witty, generous, and kind person. A fine gentleman who, I remember, looked damned fine in his 1812 British army officer's uniform. I am so sad that he is gone.

I am thinking of the last time we spent time together and I am reminded of Brutus' words to his men prior to the final battle in Julius Caesar,
"If we do meet again, why, we shall smile ; if not, why, then, this parting was well made." Glad to have shared the road with you sir.

Bob Lister taught Robert at Bessborough P. S. many years ago. We, Bob and Lis, remember attending a grade 8 dance and seeing Robert enjoying the event with his class-mates. I even shared a dance with him. As well, when I was a nurse at Sunnybrook, I had the pleasure of looking after him after he had had his appendix removed. I remember giving him ice chips because he was parched from the “No food by mouth” orders. Later, I learned that these ice chips had "saved his life". We share these memories as we remember Robert (Bob), a very personable and likable young man.
Blessings,
Bob and Lis Lister [email protected]

My deepest sympathy to Bob's family and loved ones. Bob had such a good spirit. I have many cherished memories of him during the LHS years and later on. His smile could light up a room.

One of the best, Quickie always included me in any of his pal's gatherings. We all have our Leaside groups, but in Bob's case, I think he belonged in all of our gangs. I miss him already.

When I think of my youth in Leaside and the fun and adventurous get-togethers I think of Bob... calm, witty, athletic, always a sly grin on his face. He was part of the glue that bonded us Leasiders through our adult lives... a keeper of the flame. Rest in peace Bob.

I played hockey for a season with Bob on the Leaside Kings team and he was "Quick" as they say on the ice (we'll faster than me anyway). Lots of fond memories of a gentleman that will be missed.

Bob will be missed by so many, he was truly a Leaside icon, I will miss the warmth and kindness he showed to so many of his friends. He was a great guy!

Bob was my student at Leaside. I coached him in Rugby and in Drama and he showed remarkable talent in both. We have remained friends since. Being in Bob's company was a fun and enjoyable experience; he enriched the lives of his friends with his personality and good cheer and he will be missed by all who knew him.. Nicholas Mitchell

Bob and I grew up in the community of Leaside. Crossing paths through many mutual activities and friends. Once we left the hallowed halls of LHS, and found ourselves at McMaster those paths became closer. He never faulted in knowing that we were family away from home. As the years progressed, that bond that we all feel for each other was kept alive by Bob. His desire to stay in touch and to have his community of friends near.
Quickie taught us the value of friendship, something we all need to acknowledge in our chaotic lives. Thank you Bob. Brownie
