GLAZEBROOK, Robert Brian 'Bob'

After struggling with his health for the last 5 years, Bob found peace on
October 27, 2020 at Hospice Wellington.

He leaves behind his steadfast partner, his wife Lorraine with whom he
lovingly shared 46 years of married ups and downs. Devoted father to Phil
(Sarah, who he loved like a daughter) B.C. and Brad - always concerned
about their needs, ready to support them. Cherished Gramps to his
incredible grandchildren, PJ and Clover.

Survived by his brother Paul (Eva) of Massachusetts. Loving uncle to David
(Amie), Aaron (Melissa), Neil (Linda) and Katy (Ken) and all his other
nieces and nephews; always anxious to hear about their lives in spite of
the distance. Abby, Hana, Jacob, Zahara, and Liam.

Predeceased by his adoring grandparents, Mildred (Nini) and Arthur
Boettger and his parents Brian and Joyce Glazebrook and stepfather, John
Cowley.

For 33 years, Bob taught school in Halton and Wellington Boards of
Education. He loved teaching, always ready to help out his fellow
colleagues. He was loved by his students and was always concerned about
their welfare. Parents admired him for taking care of their children. For
the final 20 years of his career, he was very involved in Teacher's
Federation, first as union representative, holding various executive
positions for a number of the schools at which he taught. Later, as Union
President and Chief Negotiator for the elementary school teachers. In all
these positions, he worked tirelessly for the needs of his fellow
teachers, appreciated by all.

During retirement (2005) he and Lorraine took some wonderful trips,
enjoyed theater outings, and he loved being a Grandpa to his grandchildren
in B.C.

The last 5 years of his life involved the many challenges he faced with
regards to his health. He worked through them all one after another,
always loved by his family, wanting to be well for them. During his last
hospital visit, his body finally said to him 'Enough is enough Bob. It is
time for peace now.'

Thank you to all the doctors and nurses in the Emergency Department at
Guelph General Hospital who welcomed him, treated him and sent him home
and to all those in ICU and the various wards who took such wonderful care
of him during his extended stays. Thank you to all the wonderful
neighbours who supported and encouraged him during these times.

Bob spent the last 8 hours of his life at Hospice Wellington. There he
found the welcoming calm that he had been searching for and was welcomed
into the arms of God on October 27, 2020 at 2am. Lorraine and Brad so
appreciated the hours that Hospice gave them to say their final goodbyes.
A wonderful gift- a time they will always cherish.

Cremation has taken place. A small private graveside ceremony will take
place at Woodlawn Memorial Park. Donations to Guelph General Hospital
Foundation or Hospice Wellington would be appreciated by the family.
