Robert William Wellard who left this world January 4th, 2025, was born in Winnipeg January 1947. Bob lived a wonderful life spending part of his youth in England, speaking fondly of his time there with a smile.
The greatest love of his life was his wife, Patty. They sailed around Vancouver Island, loving each other and life.
He travelled the world, living life the way he wanted. His love for cats and dogs was noticeable when he met new 4-legged friends.
A passionate sailor he spent many years as a tugboat Captain, taking great pride in his profession, being at sea was a place of tranquility and freedom.
We and the world will miss you, Bob.
A celebration of life will be held for Bob on Saturday February 1st, 2025, at 7072 Briarwood Place, Sooke from 1 to 4 pm. All of Bob’s friends are welcome to join us.
