ROGERS, Robert "Bob" George

ROGERS, Robert

In loving memory of Robert (Bob) Rogers who was born in Kelowna on March 25, 1928 and passed away on May 13, 2017.
He is survived by his loving wife of 64 years Beverley and their 3 children, Mark, Carol, Chris (Cathy), 6 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren, 2 brothers Bill (Joan) and Charlie (Jeanette).

Bob was predeceased by 4 brothers and 3 sisters. Bob served with the RCAF for 28 years and worked at Canada Post 15 years.

The family would like to thank all of the community health care aids that came so faithfully every day, the staff of 4 east at KGH and at Central Okanagan Hospice House who not only cared for him but us as well. A special thank you to Dr. Ronnald Schriemer who made many visits to ensure that Bob was as comfortable as possible during his illness. We are certainly fortunate to live in a city where there are so many caring people.
A Memorial Service will be held at

    Dear Bev, Mark, Carol and Chris, we have fond memories when you were such great neighbours on Smith Creek Road. You were the reason that it was a good place to bring up a family. It was always fun when 'little' Chris came to play with our kids in the sandbox and on the swings. How quickly the time has passed. Bob was always an enjoyable person to be around. He will be missed so much. Trust that your great times together will ease the pain of the loss of a wonderful man. We send our heartfelt sympathies.

    Stan and Anne Coster (as well as Julie and Mark)
