GARDINER: Robert “Bob” of London

November 6, 2026 By Haskett Funeral Homes 4 Condolences

GARDINER: Robert “Bob” of London

Passed away in his home in London on Tuesday, November 3, 2026 at the age of 83. Father of Stephen Gardiner, and Sandy Schefter. Grandpa of Mia, Maren, Emma Gardiner; Cole, Wade (Jayda), and Leah Schefter. Predeceased by his parents Robert and Janet, and his sister.

Bob was a dedicated employee of Canada Post for over 25 years. He was always willing to lend a helping hand, whether it was fixing a lawnmower for a neighbour or helping someone in his building. During his time at Chelsey Park, Bob enjoyed the simple pleasures of life, especially spending time in the rose garden, going for walks, and sharing a coffee and conversation with his friends.

Keeping with Bob’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A private family graveside will be held at St. James Cemetery, Clandeboye.

Donations to a charity of your choice would be appreciated by the family.

    Condolences to Bob’s family and friends. I worked with Bob for many years at the post office. Bob was always there when you needed him. A smile, a laugh, a story. He made our workplace a better place to be. May he rest in peace.
