Robert Frank Sinkovics

Robert (Rob) Sinkovics, a beloved father, grandfather, husband, boss, neighbour and friend passed away on October 26, 2024, after a long and difficult battle with cancer. His final moments were peacefully spent surrounded by his wife and children.

He is survived by his loving wife, Kim and their 5 children Darian, Chelsey (Barend), Seaira, Marcus (Jenna) and Shantina; His Grandsons Kyler and Liam; His siblings Mariann (Don) and David (Maureen); His cats Finn, Sweetie, Lily, Ginger and Thomas and his chicken, Clucky. Robert was predeceased by his parents Pat and Andy Sinkovics.

Robert worked as a civilian at the Department of National Defence for 30 years. Many of his colleagues have fondly referred to him as “The Best Boss Ever”. He led with kindness and respect, hoping to ensure all his staff felt valued and heard.

He loved rock n roll, and his passion became a family affair when he proposed to his wife in front of the one and only Ozzy Osbourne. He and his grandson, Kyler attended many concerts together, igniting a love for music that will last generations. Robert showed kindness to everyone he met, constantly doing all he could to help others. He will be dearly missed by all who had the opportunity to know him.

A celebration of his life will be held at Memories Funeral Home, 13403 St. Albert Trail Edmonton, AB on Monday, November 4, 2024 at 2:00 pm as we honour his life and celebrate the wonderful times he gave to us.

In lieu of flowers the family asks that memorial donations be made to The Cross Cancer Institute.
