Bob “Robert” Bell
May 9, 1957 – April 16, 2024
Bob Bell, age 66, beloved husband of Linda Bell, passed away on Tuesday, April 16, 2024 in Calgary, Alberta. Born on May 9, 1957 in Calgary, Bob was a lifelong resident of the city. He was a self-employed businessman, starting at a very young age to help provide for his family and his obscene obsession with cars.
Bob was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He cherished his wife Linda and his two daughters, Lindsay (Casey) and Lesli. He was also blessed with three grandchildren, Desmond, Crue, and Lake, who brought immense joy to his life. Bob’s greatest achievement was his family, whom he lived for everyday and loved dearly. Bob loved nothing more than to spend time with his family.
In his free time, Bob loved to go on long countryside drives with his loving wife Linda. He would insist on stopping for coffee in every small town along the way. He loved watching and playing with his grandchildren, and chatting up whoever would listen.
Bob will be most remembered for his dedication to his family and his kindness to everyone he met. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
The family would like to thank all the people, groups, and institutions who have supported them during this difficult time.
“Your footsteps could never be filled, nor your love ever forgotten”.
Bob will always be remembered as a loving and devoted family man. His memory will live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him.
