Robert Matheson

My sincere sympathy to the Matheson family on the passing of Mr. Matheson. Having worked in his law firm for many years I gained a great deal of respect for him and admired the things that he did. Memories of RSM (as we called him in the office) will be with me a very long time.

Dear Matheson Family,

What a beautiful celebration of life you held for your father. Mattie your lovely song from your heart was amazing. Duncan your storytelling gift is so much like your father's great gift of stories he loved to share. Robert your humor was appreciated. Susan your presence was generous like your Dad. And Scott your talk was kind and loving like the special man you have all given tribute too.
The children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren brought joy to this incredible celebration of life just like Bob himself. The great sparkle of his eyes were represented in the sparkles of those lovely Christmas tree decorations at his funeral.

A wonderful humanitarian, loving father, beloved Robert is the essence of unconditional love, acceptance, passion, laughter and a beautiful spirit that spans all planes of existence.

We thank him for making a difference in our world.
Robert will always be connected in the universe.
Blessings to you all ~ Sharon Marie & Tim Mavko (and twins)

Our deepest sympathy to Bobs family. Gerri and Bob were always gracious and it was a pleasure to know them. Now they are together. Sorry, due to ilness, we could not attend the funeral. He will be fondly remembered.

An amazing life and an amazing man! A true citizen, Bob never complained about the things around him ... he set out to change them and succeeded. Many a time we sat around his board table and discussed how we were going to change the world! We're still working away. Thank-you Bob! Your contribution and legacy lives on.

To the Matheson Family,
We would like to express our sincere sympathy to you for the loss of your father. Both Bob and Gerri were good neighbours and friends and we are sorry we could not attend the Memorial service as we are wintering in Arizona. Del & Sandy Roberge

My deepest sympathies to your family. There are no words one can say at this time to take away the pain of loss. He was one of Edmonton's greatest.

A salute to a great man and condolences to the family.

Lynda (Mattie), Scott, Duncan, Susan, Rob and family. I had the priviledge of serving on the Edmonton Crimestoppers Board from 1984 to 1989. I was always very Impressed by the professional manner in which Mr. Matheson handled all activities involved with the board. I feel honoured to have known him.

Sandy and Cecile Mactaggart salute a a man for all seasons, who improved the world he lived in, ...... immeasurably.

Our thoughts and prayers are with all the Matheson clan as you say goodbye to a wonderful man.

To Bob's beloved family,
your father inspired many of us to contibute whatever we can - to add our light to a sum of light. He was my 'Crimestoppers' mentor, and thereafter became my friend; I will miss him. He loved each of you very much, and in this I pray you'll take some comfort.

Susan, Don & Family - Our Thoughts and Prayers are with you at this time of loss.

My first memories of Mr. Matheson were when we lived in the Highlands. Your mom and dad lived in the Highlands also. They didn't live far from us and I visited them often. I was about 6 yrs old. I always remember Mr. Matheson as so happy and fun to be with. I liked his laugh. Jim and I are very sad to hear of your dad's passing. May your memories ease your grief and bring you comfort during this difficult time.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Mr. Matheson was a wonderful & kind person.

Bob was a great guy. I knew him through the military. None were better.

I send my deepest condolences out to the Matheson Family. Gerri, was my mom's cousin (Adeline George nee Topilko) Bob, had such a friendly contagous smile, I am sure he will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him.

Linda (Mattie), Scott, Duncan, Susan, Rob and family:
I had the good fortune of knowing your father since the fall of 1982 when we worked closely together founding the Crime Stopper Association of Edmonton and Northern Alberta. He will always be the patriarch and model of Board leadership for this wonderful crime solving community program. Bob pioneered so many Crime Stoppers initiatives locally, provincially, nationally and internationally they are too numerous to list here. What a great and wise man whose personification of integrity and commitment to public service were without peer. I grew to love Bob like a father. He will be missed but always remembered.

What a beautiful tribute to our beloved Uncle Bob/Slater. He was a humanitarian, but he was a family man above all. I will miss his warm smiling eyes which became more and more like Cutie's with each passing year. We were all so privileged to have had him in our lives as an example of how to live. Love each other.

Bob Matheson was a faithful member and supporter of the Rt. Hon. Sir Winston S. Churchill Society in Edmonton. We will miss him and his support of our Society.

Scott, Linda, Duncan, Susan, Rob and to your families, our condolences. Uncle Bob was a kind and generous man. It was great to see him in August at the cousins get together, the Brown's and Bordian's will miss him!

With deep sadness we learned of Mr. Matheson's passing. He was such a special man. Our deepest sympathies to his family.

We are very sorry to hear about Mr. Matheson's passing. He was a great man and will be missed by all of us.

It is with sadness that we learned of Bob's death. He was a wonderful gentleman whose good sense of humor was known by all who met him. Our condolences go out to all the family members in the loss of their esteemed member.

Hey Dad, I'm just checking to make sure this guest book thing works. I love you for ever.
