Known by many, loved by all

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our son, Robert James McIlwraith, at this home in Petrolia on June 27th, 2023. He is survived by his parents, Ken and Rhona, his younger brother David (spouse Pamela) and many relatives scattered around the globe.

Robert had some special needs and lived at a Lambton County Developmental Services (LCDS) group home for many years. He had a mischievous sense of humour, an inquisitive mind and enjoyed watching home maintenance projects being completed. Robert was always eager to help out wearing his favorite safety vest and hard hat.

Cremation has already taken place and a Celebration of Life will be announced in the near future.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to a charity of your choice.
