Robert MacQuarrie McMuldroch passed peacefully on Wednesday, July 17, 2024 at St. Joseph’s Hospital with his family by his side. Born July 9, 1937 in Port Arthur, Robert grew up on McIntyre Street, attended Shuniah Elementary School and St. John’s College in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

As a young man, Robert worked tirelessly in bush camps as a heavy equipment diesel mechanic. Later working at Mack Trucks, where he became the shop steward, eventually leaving the shop floor behind to become a Directing Business Representative for the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers representing Local Lodge 1120.

Robert’s passions included sailing, hunting, and fishing with friends on Lake Superior and surrounding area. His love of nature began at Wild Goose as a youth. Later in life, he enjoyed spending his time with family and friends at Silver Lake and One Island Lake. There was no place he would rather be than going for a putt around the lake and watching the sunset. Robert made sure he visited his camp one last time on May 19th, just to take in the fresh air and view that he loved so much.

Robert was predeceased by his wife Carole, daughter Susan Miller, parents Rebecca and Peter, brother Peter (Peggy), sister Anne (Aldo) Di Blasio, brother-in-law Charles Bye.

Robert is survived by his children Daniel McMuldroch, Allison (Oriel) Hill, Bruce (Erin) McMuldroch, son-in-law Stephen Miller, grandchildren Riley, Kyle & Hailey Miller, Jacob & Jessica Hill, his sister Sandra Bye, brother Winston (Darlene) McMuldroch, and by numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives.

As per Robert’s wishes, no service will be held. Please take a moment to honour his memory in your own special way.
