Robert Carl Curtis

July 22, 1959 - January 6, 2022

It is with a heavy heart and deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our dear Brother, Uncle, Friend and Cousin, Robert Carl Curtis, Born July 22nd, 1959. Rob will always be remembered by his large presence, his unbelievable smile and laugh, his deep and genuine love for his family and friends. He was a voice that you never needed to wonder what he was thinking. A tremendous man with a heart as big as New York. His sense of humor was colorful. He was stubborn, independent as hell, opinionated, spectacular with a not always appropriate shock value at times, but there was nobody in this universe that was more wonderful to be around and know that you are loved. He spoke from the heart, witty, unapologetic and shot from the hip. Rob loved the outdoors, being at the cottage, fishing, hunting, golf and sharing moments with the people he loved. Rob loved butter tarts, no raisins. Rob has left a very huge hole in our hearts that will never be replaced and none of us can imagine what life will be without him. It does provide comfort knowing that Rob is at peace and reunited with his beloved Mom and Dad, Melva and Allan, and sorely missed nephew Jeff Puddy. Rob leaves behind his sister Jeanette (Curtis) & Jim Puddy, Debbie (Curtis) & Raye Shier, brother Jeff & Karen (Bizzell) Curtis, Sister Corinne (Curtis) & Drew Oberson, sister Catherine (Curtis) & Tim Irwin. Also Rob leaves many nieces and nephews, Jason and Teressa Puddy, Jennifer and Rob Murdock, late Jeffery Puddy, Dustin and Alexa Shier, Dylan and Jordana Shier, Taya and Pierre Eady, Becky and Jason Stanley, Rob and Chelsea Curtis, Braden and Veronica (Oberson), Aaron and Lucy (Oberson), Austin Oberson, Tess and Tyson Casselman, Elyse Robson, Brython and Katherine Robson and Seaton Robson. Leaving 16 great nieces and nephews. Special and much Loved friends, way too many to name, you know who you are, to name only a few, Dave Pascoe, Doug Callahan, Barry Thompson, Jason Toms. Thank you so much for your unconditional Love and Support. A special Thank you to the Union 506 who have been so supportive and a big part of Rob’s Life. Special Thanks to the unbelievable support team that helped us out through this traumatic and sudden time. Paramedic’s, Police, and Dr. A.N. Emery was especially incredible with their professionalism. Thank you. Due to covid restrictions there will be no visiting or service at this time. A celebration of life will be held at a later date. If desired donations may be made to the Heart & Stroke Foundation or Northumberland Hills Hospital.

Dear Brother - I am going to miss you so much, in fact I really can't believe I am writing this. You were always a source of entertainment for our whole family, never a dull moment when you were around, there is definitely a lot of good memories and so much laughter and I am not sure how we will ever cope without having you here. Drew loved you so much and our boys adored you, everyone of their friends out here in Pemberton wanted to meet their Uncle Rob because they talked about you all the time their friends felt they knew you. There will never be anyone like you again. I am hoping and praying that you are with our parents, I know how much you loved and missed them. and we also know how much you loved your brother and 4 sisters. You will be sorely missed, until we meet again. Your loving sister. Corinne

My earliest memory of Rob, was at the hunting lodge, when he was dancing around the fire, impersonating Mick Jagger! I loved Rob as a child! His energy, his humour, his ever so contagious laugh! And most of all, I will remember Rob for his huge heart. Even as a small child, I could sense how much he loved our family! Cheers to Rob, and everything that made him the fun-loving, kind and loving soul that he was! The perfect balance between what it means to be a friend, and whst it means to be family! I love you, Rob, and will never forget you! Jocelyn ❤️
