Robert "Bob" Elmer Blackwell

March 6, 1946 — September 7, 2024

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bob Blackwell on Sept. 7, 2024. Bob was born on March 6, 1946, in Regina SK. He is survived by his loving wife of 51 years, Vi Blackwell, son Steven Blackwell (Brenna), daughter Leanne Schappert (Bob), his two grandchildren Drew and Bentley Schappert, his Brother Mait Blackwell (Heather), sister Bev Antal (Lloyd). He was predeceased by his parents Elmer and Jean Blackwell, and his siblings Gord Blackwell, Lynn Blackwell, Fred Tizzard and Dot Lewis. 

Bob loved his family more than anything. His passions in life were spending time in the garage with his son Steven re-building Steve’s 1973 Ford Bronco, travelling with his wife Vi (a favorite destination being Hawaii) and spending time with his daughter Leanne’s family; watching his granddaughter Drew compete in horse jumping, and his grandson Bentley play baseball. Bob worked at IPEX Inc. for 34 years as a salesman and has always been very involved with his work and in the community; he has made numerous friends along the way. He was a people person; one that is certain to be remembered. We would like to thank the RUH neurology and ICU staff for their care and compassion they showed Bob and his family during this difficult time. In Lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation. 

A Celebration of Life will be held at 1:00 pm on Friday September 20, 2024 at Cherished Memories Funeral Home, 591 Centennial Drive North, Martensville, SK. For anyone unable to attend the service, a livestream link has been set up at https://funeraweb.tv/en/diffusions/97791
