Nancy and I send our heartfelt condolences to Mitzi and the rest of the Tubby family. Bob was one of the kindest and most talented men one could ever hope to meet in their life.

Mitzi, Shannon, Geneva, Kurtis and Blake,
Our sincere condolences on the passing of Bob. We have fond memories of him from the days when you lived in Thornhill  and later in North York. He designed our deck in 1996 and we called him whenever we had a landscaping project. It was wonderful to be able to count on someone we knew  and we were always pleased with the work that he did. We spent fun times with Bob and Mitzi and remember fondly our Friday night theatre nights with you, the O'Farrell's and the Baily's. Bob was a wonderful man and will be missed. May the amazing memories you have of him help you through this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm so saddened by Bob's passing. I have wonderful memories growing up, of my very cool cousin Bob listening to Aerosmith, playing hockey, water skiing at the cottage and many Christmas holidays. 
Sympathies to Mitzi and family and Sandra and family.
Even though it has been a long time since we saw each other last, Bob holds a special place in my heart.
Love Cory Lawson (Locke)

We were deeply saddened to hear the news about Bob’s passing. 

Bob was a wonderful, caring and compassionate soul. We have many fond memories of wonderful times with Bob on Muldrew Lake, in summer and also in winter, snowshoeing, and the Muldrew Cup hockey tournament. He was always kind, welcoming and generous.  I’ll always remember chatting with him about the importance of “being present”. 

Rest in peace Bob and thank you for your friendship. 

Our hearts are with you Mitzi, and the entire Tubby Family and we send our heartfelt condolences to all of you❤️

Nancy and Greg

Dear Mitzi,

My condolences to you and the family.  May the happy memories  that you have shared, help you through this difficult time.

Thinking of you.

From early days of  college hockey, cottage weekends,weddings and life along the way, so many wonderful memories with Bob.
My favorite moment  was my 60 th Birthday party.
My wife and kids organized a surprise bash for me. It was Scottish themed, which was completely lost on me until Bob showed up in his blue plaid kilt!
He and Mitzi  gifted me a birthday bottle of fine Scotch Wiskey.
Today I will crack that very bottle and toast Robert for being one of the finest of gentleman I’ve had the pleasure to know..

Dear Mitsy, Blake, and family.
So sorry to hear the news of the passing of Bob.
I have a great respect for him as a landscape professional and for his accomplishments and contributions to the industry over the past 40 years.
Theses are some words that I would use to describe my friend Bob besides having an overdose of integrity.
Professional, honest, hard-working, passionate, caring, selfless, sharing, and totally interested in the success of others.
Occasionally, we would seek each other out for advice on a particular issue, which I always appreciated.
In my 40 years in the industry, I never heard a bad word spoken about Bob.

We were very sorry to hear of the passing of Bob. We have dealt with Arbordale for over 20 years and Bob was always such a pleasure to deal with. Our sincerest condolences to the Tubby family.

Bob was my running buddy for over 20 years…every Wed morning at 6 am, come rain, sleet or snow, we seldom missed our running dates. A fellow Rotarian for many years, golf buddy  and dear friend, I will miss him dearly. 

My deep condolences to Mitzi, his children and his seven grandchildren, whom he loved to give me updates.

Dear Mitzi and family,
I was saddened to hear about Bob’s passing. I will forever remember his brilliant smile and hearty laugh.

With memories from Winston and Susan McKillen, who forty years later, still have the Arbordale Landscaping and Moonstruck Lighting making our Wentworth home, a much better place, due to the professional and longstanding workmanship and fine service of Bob and even now, Blake and Conrad, on our speed dial! 
A legacy in landscaping and an honourable man.

Your family was loved and admired. You and Bob were an inspiring couple. May  memories of the life you built together bring you comfort at this  time of sorrow. 
With love & friendship,

Very sad to learn of Bob’s passing. We shared lots of fun times on the ice during our rec hockey days. Bob did tremendous landscape design work for us involving many projects at our Thornhill home and was always a pleasure to work with. My condolences go out to Mitzi and the entire Tubby family.

It's with a sad and heavy heart that I start to process Bob's death. The Landscape Ontario community is deeply indebted for his leadership, vision, persistence and legacy of the Prosperity Partners concept. Bob was my mentor, and my friend. His fingerprints are indelibly stamped on the founding principles and culture of the Peer to Peer Network, which is the current Prosperity Partners programme. His vision has helped over a thousand businesses to thrive.
I am grateful that he is at peace, and to his family, that you all have this moment in time to reflect and embrace on the countless ways Bob made this world and his beloved Landscape Profession, better because of his wonderful character.
