COUSINS: Robert (Bob) (Cuzzy)

On Saturday, May 23, 2020 Bob Cousins passed away quickly but comfortably at Alexandra Marine and General
Hospital in his 76th year. Left to mourn him is his wife Sharon, his siblings Reta (Bob Elliott), Ruth (Marty Buchanan),
Don (Juanita) and Shirley, plus his many friends and folks that were just like family to him. Predeceased by his son Aaron, his parents Dick and Ruby and his brother Jim. Due to the current restrictive conditions there will be no visitation.ย  A private interment via invitation only will be held on Wednesday May 27 at Maitland Cemetery. Sometime in the future when we can gather together we will do so and share stories and memories. Donations to the Cuzzy Bear Jr. Golf Camps (cheques payable to Goderich Sunset Golf Club 33937 Golf Course Road, Goderich, ON N7A 3Y3) would be appreciated in his memory. Friends may sign the book of condolences at www.mccallumpalla.ca
