ROBERT (BOB) REIMER

Robert Alexander Reimer, affectionately known as Bob, was born on January 24th, 1953, in Winnipeg, Manitoba. A passionate advocate, Bob passed the bar in 1981, dedicating his career to the service of his clients, whom he cared for deeply. On February 17, 2024, we tragically lost Bob.

To those who knew him, Bob was a kind soul, always ready to lend an ear and engage in thoughtful conversation. His curiosity and empathy made him a cherished friend and family member.

Bob had a passion for cars, with a particular fondness for his Mazda Miata. Over one memorable Christmas, he lovingly rebuilt and supercharged the engine right in his kitchen. His love for speed extended to the racetrack, where he was a longstanding member of the Victoria Motor Sports Club.

Bob is survived by his son, Jeff; his former partner and lifelong friend, Colleen Kovacs; his brothers, Gill (Shirley) and Wayne (Rhona); his nieces and nephews, Noah, Ezra, Eliza, Scott, and Clark; and his long-standing assistant, who was like an adopted daughter to him, Kayla.

While he might not have been a perfect man, he was the epitome of a father.

To my best friend, my dad, and the gentlest man I have ever known, thank you for holding my hand. I wish you had let me hold yours a little longer.

Please join us for a celebration of his life in the Sequoia Centre at McCall Gardens, 4665 Falaise Drive, on March 9, 2024, at 2:00 p.m.
