Obituary of Robert Finnerty

Finnerty-Robert “Bob”

Passed away peacefully on December 20, 2024 at the age of 74. Loving husband and best friend to Linda for 56 years. Loving father to Tammy (Randy), Sherry and Jerome (Michelle). Proud grandfather to Jasmine, Tyler and Michael. Predeceased by his parents Jerome and Frances, sister Donna Ouellette and nephew Ryan. Bob is survived by his siblings Ted (Judy), Cheryl, brother-in-law Lee and sister-in-law Mary (Anne). Bob will be deeply missed by his nieces, nephews, cousins, friends and neighbours.

Bob worked for over 40 years in the Mold Trade where he met and built friendships with many people. He was also a small business owner where he repaired hand tools for over 30 years. Bob was always looking forward to going to his “happy place” in Canadian Lakes, Michigan. He loved to share stories by the fire and on the boat with his extended U.S. camping family and friends.

Special thanks to Sherry, Jerome, Michelle, Bob and Debbie Menard, Jan and Glenn Brandt and extended family Jim, Phyllis and Tonya for all of their extra love, support, and visits throughout Bob’s I.P.F. diagnosis and its’ progression.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Liang, Marg, Karen, Maureen, Cecilia and all other health care staff who provided exceptional care and support during Bob’s illness.

A private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.

Memorial donations may be made to Hospice of Windsor and Dying With Dignity.
