Obituary for Bob

HASTINGS, ROBERT - We are sad to announce the passing of Robert (Bob) Hastings, passed away peacefully at home with his loving family by his side on May 11th, 2020 at 69 years. The most loving Husband, Dad, Papa, Brother, and Uncle anyone could ask for. Bob was born March 25th, 1951. Beloved husband of Sheila Hastings. Loving father to Tasha Crabs (Darren), Patrick (Sue), and Michael. Special “Papa” to Keagan, Corey, and Steven. Brother to Jennifer (Don), and missed by his nieces and nephews. Daddy, death may have taken you from us, but our life’s hero you will always be.

Bob had a lot of talent, he was known for his artistic abilities, from pinstriping to murals, lettering boats, snowmobiles, helmets, cars, and a lot of clubs in the Sudbury area. He could just pick up his airbrush and create the most beautiful murals on whatever he thought he could put a picture on. He was in the Sudbury Classic Cruisers Club for many years. Loved his “1965 Ford Galaxie” and took many trophies with his pride and joy. He also loved his trains, built model train layouts with so much detail, he was in the train club for many years. He really enjoyed his hobbies. One of his biggest passions was listening to his music and entertaining everyone. He was the life of the party.

We will miss you forever and love you for always. Forever in our hearts, until we see you again.

The family expresses their appreciation to Kelly Adams, Danielle Drouin, and Dell Demers for their care, compassion, and support (Sheila’s angels).
