KISCH: Robert Alexander

January 17, 2022 By 47 Condolences

KISCH: Robert Alexander

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Rob Kisch, age 58, announce his passing on January 17th, 2022. Rob is survived by his ex-wife (Patty Tebbutt), Mother Sandra Kisch (Leon Gaynor), brothers Randy (wife Linda) and Terry (wife Jayne), sister Lisa (husband Steve), nephews Caley Kisch, Corey Kisch, Nathan Kisch, Tucker Kisch, nieces Meaghan Kisch, Sarah Kisch and Nicole Kyte. Also, survived by great nieces Sophie, Brooklyn, Paisley, and great nephew Oliver.
Rob worked in sales for a large part of his life. He loved to make people laugh and was always the life of the party. It was this attribute that endeared him to many of his friends. He took the time to tell friends how important they were in his life. He would always be hosting parties at the โ€œfunny farmโ€ which was the home he loved the best. We as a family would always cherish our Christmasโ€™s at Rob and Patโ€™s place. He loved to cook and would always make a fantastic Christmas meal for us. Then in the morning the kids would open their presents with glee. Meanwhile Rob and his siblings would tell stories of some of the hilarious things we did as kids. Sometimes you would have to walk away because your tummy was sore from all the laughing.. It is these things that we will really miss now that Rob has passed.
Rob was also an accomplished fisherman. You could always find him down on the Maitland River fishing for nice trout or salmon. For Rob, it wasnโ€™t just the fishing he loved, it was good times with friends and the serenity of the river that gave Rob peace.

    My sincerest condolences, Sandra. I saw Rob at the Farmers’ Market this fall and we had a long chat about the past. He did talk of his love of fishing and being with friends. I have remembered his conversation many times during the last few months. He will have left many memories that speak of the impact he made on those he knew.

    I remember Rob and his siblings from a very early age. We all used to swim at the Judith Gooderham pool in Goderich and enjoy the different events like the penny carnivals and sleep overs there on the property. I had lost touch with Rob over the years but when my good friend and co-worker Patty started going out with him we reconnected on an adult level and he was definitely someone we all loved to be around. We spent many great times together and one in particular was when they came to visit us on our boat in Bayfield and he and Patty took our SeaDoo out for a spin. I can still hear Patty pleading with him to not go so fast but Rob was having way too much fun. RIP our dear friend until we meet again.
