DUNN, Robert Jason 'Rob'

It is with great sadness, we announce the passing of beloved husband, father and grampa, Robert Jason Dunn, suddenly on Wednesday, Sept 18th, 2024, at the age of 59 years.

Dearly loved husband of 36 years to Kim Dunn (Ruby), father of Brad Dunn (Katie), Mitch Dunn (Tori), Amber Kollman (Matt). Proud grandfather to Myles, Natalie, Bennett, Finnley and Ruby. Survived by his mother-in-law Patricia Ruby (Robinson), brothers Leslie Dunn and Martin Van de Byl, and sisters Tammy Dunn and Melissa Everleigh (Chris). Also survived by sister-in-law Crystal Ruby and brother-in-law Mark Ruby (Jaana) along with many nieces and nephews.

Predeceased by his parents, Lorne Dunn and Marilyn Neff and father-in-law Fred Ruby.

Rob was born in Sault Ste Marie October 19, 1964, before moving to Stratford as a child. He met the love of his life Kim in 1984, and they wed in 1988 before welcoming their three children. He enjoyed watching his sons and now his grandson play hockey. He was never one to turn down a friend needing a hand or listening ear. He was a hardworking, dedicated husband, father and friend.

Rob entered the construction industry in his teens working with Roth Drainage, Ken Krantz, and Paul Ramseyer to name a few before starting Dunn Excavating in 1991. Rob was very passionate and dedicated to his craft and will be greatly missed by so many.

A small family service will be held to honour his life. A celebration of Rob's life will take place at the Royal Canadian Legion, Tavistock on Saturday, October 19, 2024 from 2-5pm.

The family would appreciated if you could share your memories of Rob on the Memory Wall of the website.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) and Stratford Perth Humane Society would be appreciated by the family. Personal condolences can be posted at www.francisfh.ca
