(37) 102 Deaths ROWCLIFFE - On September 6, 2005 Robert Douglas (Bob) passed away. Bob was born on May 12, 1932 and raised by his father Elgin and mother Ada (Case) in Rodgerville on Lot 34, Concession 1 of Usborne Township. Bob is survived by three of his seven siblings and their spouses: Bill and Betsy of Hensall; Ron and Annette of Sarnia, and: Peggy (Craven) and Geoff of Victoria, British Columbia. Ruth (1924-1929); Laird (1926-1930); Alan (1929-1936), and; John (Feb. 21-22, 1931) can now spend some time with their brother. Bob attended both Hurondale School and Exeter High School but was never particularly interested in sitting behind a desk. On May 24th, 1952 Bob married the love of his life, Doreen Elliott, in Clinton, Ontario. Together for over 53 years, they raised, loved and worried after their three chil- dren: John, Patricia (Campbell) and David. All three kids have strived to emulate what their parents had together and as a result Bob is going to be missed by John's children Chris, Ashley (and her new son and Bob's first great-grand- child Preston), Ryan and John's wife Karrie, Pat's hus- band Wayne and their children Tara and her fiance John Hartman, Erin, Matt and Tim, and; David's wife Kelly and their daughters Paige and Bridget. As a husband, dad and grandfather Bob instilled a sense of honesty, integrity, loy- alty and a work ethic that will be difficult to replace. Bob had farming and trucking in his blood and was never happier than when harvesting a good crop, sending a load of fat cat- tle to the sales barn or deliver- ing a load on time. Bob's entreprenurial spirit grew Rowcliffe Trucking from one cattle pot that he drove into a company employing dozens of good employees to whom he felt deeply committed. Bob also took great joy in snow - blowing his neighbour's laneways and watching the traffic on No. 4 highway from his front porch while sharing a coffee and a story with Doreen. Bob especially appreciated the time spent with Doreen watch- ing their horses, Dapper Dillion and RJ Ready, race in both Canada and the United States. After a private family ceremony Bob will be laid to rest at the Hensall Union Cemetery. Donations may be made in Bob's memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, Brian Tumour Foundation or the Hensall United Church through J.M. McBeath Funeral Home in Zurich. www.jmm- cbeathfuneralhome.com (37) PET ADOPTION BULLETIN Huron OSPCA (Ontario Humane Society) Keisha is a female, 4 -year-old, Rottweiler. She has been spayed and is housetrained. Keisha has been well looked after and lived with a 9 -month-old child whom she adored. Ideally Keisha would suit a family with slightly older children just because she is such a large girl. We are looking for someone to adopt Keisha that wants her as a pet, not as a farm dog or guard dog. She listens very well and knows several commands. No cats please.
