Condolence from Jurrien Hoekstra on April 17th, 2023 12:21 PM

I called him “Irish” and he call me “Hooker” and we had played Jr. hockey and worked together for Ontario Hydro for years. He was the roughest piece of lumber you could imagine but as a Friend he was always the Best. He always worked hard and played hard and lived life to the Max. We both married Seaforth gals …..and sadly also lost them both to illness. Life is Hard.
Good Bye my Old Friend ! I’m sure you’ll be in Heaven cuz the Devil couldn’t handle You….Plus God needs someone to Roll the Thunder! Love and a Kindness to Bob’s entire Family..He was a GOOD ONE! Later. “Irish”

The mold has been broken – Sav was an amazing friend and neighbour. No matter where you traveled, someone always knew “Sav Carnochan”.
The only thing tougher than Sav was his good buddy “Rags”.
Everyone has great “stories” and hope that this will lessen your pain just a little.
Comforting hugs from Gerry and Kathy

Condolence from Matt Townsend on April 17th, 2023 7:57 PM

Truly the loss of a legend. But the legend shall live on through the great stories of “Sav’s” life. I had never met Sav in person until late in my teenage years but had known him well through my fathers telling (George). Whether all the stories were true? I didn’t care. Either way it was a privilege to have met him and continue on a relationship at the tire shop with him. And now I’m also privileged to work with his children. Now United with his brother Bill, I’m sure they are in a bar (up above) with their chin up and backs to the wall! But that might just be another story! 😉. My sincere condolences to the Carnochans and extended families.

Condolence from Finlayson on April 17th, 2023 8:05 PM

Condolence from Gord & Kate Moylan on April 18th, 2023 9:57 AM

In the early 70’s I worked and lived with Bob in Calgary, then a couple of years later lived with him in Egmondville. Never a dull moment!
Despite at times a gruff exterior he had a heart of gold and would lend a hand to anyone who asked.
Always enjoyed catching up with Bob when we would meet in later years.
RIP

Condolence from Michael Bannon on April 18th, 2023 9:58 AM

Such sad news, hearing the passing of Sav. We grew up together as neighbours in Seaforth. What great memories and experiences I have. Bob was always fun to be around, a greeting with a powerful punch to the shoulder, and for the women, he would give a giant bear hug, while picking them up. His power for drawing people to him, and his power in living life. A true legend and a great friend.
Condolences to the Carnochan/Devereaux families.

Condolence from Carolanne Doig on April 18th, 2023 1:06 PM

Sav lived life to the fullest from the time he was a kid playing kick the can in our “baby boomer” neighbourhood, through high school, his working years at Hydro, and his years as a family man. It was great to have him as a friend because you sure wouldn’t want him on the other team! His reputation extended far and wide beyond the boundaries of our community. My university room mates from over fifty years ago still ask, “How’s that Sav guy doing?” Sav made an impression on all. The stories will be retold and memories relived. I trust that the laughter they create will keep the Carnochan and Devereaux families and Sav’s many, many friends strong at this time and for years to come. Cheers Sav!

Condolence from Cor and Gerda Vanden Hoven on April 18th, 2023 1:07 PM

Condolence from Vickie Broome on April 19th, 2023 7:31 AM

Sorry for your loss! He has left a lot of good memories. Our favourite comment of savs is when asked how far it was to his hunting camp the answer was 18 beers lol. You’ll truly be missed but never forgotten

Condolence from Bob Deugo on April 19th, 2023 7:39 AM

My condolences to Bobs family and friends. I worked with Bob at the Markham Area Office when Bob was early in his career. I suffered a brain aneurysm, passed out and stopped breathing. Bob found me and somehow revived me. That was 45 years ago. I thank the LORD that Bob was there that day. To all his family and friends I want you to know that he holds a special place in my heart and I think of him and chuckle at his antics often. Rest in Peace my friend and THANK you

Dear Carnochan & Devereaux Families. At such a sad time, there are no words to say how very sorry I am to hear of “Sav’s’ sudden and far too soon passing.

My condolences to Jesslyn, Megan and families as well as the rest of the Carnochan and Devereaux families. I knew Bob for almost 60 years and he brought a lot of fun and excitement to my life over those years. My Dad described Bob quite well, “You can’t help but like the guy, he’d give you the shirt off his back but he might rip it off your back by day’s end”.

Condolence from Mark Abbott on April 19th, 2023 6:30 PM

My condolences to the families. Bob was a man larger than life. He had a heart as big as a house and never thought twice of lending a helping hand or offering advice. When Bob spoke you listened, cause if you weren’t listening, you got a good punch in the arm. I always had the utmost respect for Bob. He was a great advisor and a valued friend. I often have listened and acted on that advice over the years. I will miss Bob immensely.

From those high school escapades, gravel runs and many many Crazy adventures (water skiing in the Corn Fields)(Green hulk dye at the Ski Chalet)(House Boats and island tours)(horseback riding in Dominican) to a loving father and Friend. Sav, you will never be forgotten. As my daughter said , Bob, would walk into a room and put a smile on your face. Love you Bob. Thanks for all the good times. We will be telling your stories forever.

I’m so very sorry to hear of Bob’s passing. He was a kind and generous man who loved life. He will be greatly missed.

Condolence from Diane Clark on April 23rd, 2023 9:37 AM

Dear Jess and Megan and families:
Thank you for a wonderful Celebration of Life honouring your father. Bob “Sav”, and his well-lived life. Megan, your speech was articulated beautifully and truthfully. Well done. Loved the slide show.
Bob was such a unique character with an indomitable human spirit and an outgoing personality who had a zest for life. He enjoyed meeting people and tended to greet his friends enthusiastically, either with a grin and a nod, a firm handshake, a big bear hug, a friendly punch or a headlock!
Back in the 70’s, Sav made SDHS an interesting and exciting place to be. He often entertained his classmates with his antics and boisterous sense of humour. His quick wit, sound effects and one-liners certainly cracked us up. There was never a dull moment!
Memories were created wherever Sav went-Teen Town, the Pav in Bayfield, Social Gatherings, the Queens, Country Road Tours. You could hear his engine revving up and brakes squealing down the Main Street from blocks away. He made his presence known.
Throughout the years, it was wonderful whenever we were able to socialize with Jean and Bob. They raised two lovely daughters and adored their grandchildren. Bob and Jean are two beautiful, unforgettable souls.
May all of Sav’s family and friends be comforted at this sad time with the cherished memories made with Bob “Sav” Carnochan. Cheers to our Seaforth legend who will be fondly remembered for years to come . RIP Sav

Condolence from Bob Scanlan on June 8th, 2023 10:02 AM

My most sincere condolence to the Carnochan family. His presence in your family will be sorely missed. It was my good fortune to have met and known for a few years while he was a member of Central Region line crew and I was part of Eastern Region lines in the 1980’s. He was a talented tradesman who took pride in his work and took great enjoyment making it fun. Although it’s been many years since I’ve seen him he will always be remembered. Rest in Peace Sav!

Condolence from Ann (Bannon) Marchl on June 11th, 2023 10:49 AM

Sending our Deepest Sympathy to the Carnochan & Devereaux Families. Bob was always living his life to the fullest. I remember growing up, Bob on one of his many late night drives, driving past our house @ Wilson & Ann St…calling out @ the wee hours of the morning…”good night, Pete & Marg.” My parents always had a good laugh over it!!

My brothers had so much fun growing up with Bob & very welcomed @ the Bannon house! He is someone you will not forget!

Remembering “Sav”… Ann (Bannon) Marchl & Erwin Marchl. Cheers, Bob 🍺
