THORPE, Robert Michael Thorpe -
July 14, 1976 - April 1, 2023
Peacefully passed away after a short illness, surrounded by the women who loved him.
He is survived by his loving wife Roshelle Chenier, his beloved children Abby and Colin, his mother Clare, his father Peter (Annabel), his sisters Jenny Cooper (Steve) and Julie Ambury (Steve), as well as nieces, nephews, extended family, and “frousins”.
Rob will be missed by so many friends, most especially his best friend Ian, and wonderful work colleagues.
Rob had innumerable great qualities, most significantly his great sense of humor—he always said that you need to be able to joke at life’s worst moments.
Rob faced many health challenges throughout his life and he always met them with courage, pragmatism, and most of all humour.
He had a keen interest in many things, and a curiosity for science, tech, sports, music, and Die Hard. We are all better for having loved him.
Memorial service to be held Saturday, April 8th from 2-4 pm at BARNES MEMORIAL FUNERAL HOME in Brooklin, Ontario.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Toronto General Hospital Foundation.
