THOMPSON, Robert Alexander - We are all saddened today that we lost one of the good ones on Saturday, June 19, 2021, in his 88th year.
He valiantly fought an 8-year battle with cancer, always with an "I can beat this" attitude and strong will to live right up until the end.
Born to Robert and Margaret Thompson on March 21, 1933 and the eldest of 8 children.
Robert "Bob" Thompson left us to join the love of his life, wife Shirley (deceased 2019), who were married for 65 years.
Also his best friend and companion Buddy his Shitzu
Bob leaves an incredible legacy with children Rob, Lynda (Jeff) and Douglas (Dianne). Cherished Grandpa to Justin (Caroline), Marc (Lesley), Kyle (Michelle), Josh (deceased 2016), Jeremy and step-grandfather to Justin and Eriq. Also doting great-grandpa to Brayden, Aubrey, Chase, Taylor and Willow.
He loved to have a group bet to see who could catch the biggest Walleye.
However he was truly excited and proud to see anyone catch any big fish.
Dad will be truly missed and loved forever by all who crossed his path.
Due to current health concerns, a private family virtual service will take place on Tuesday, June 29th at 12:30 p.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or a charity of your choice.
