Obituary for Robert John Melville

Melville, Robert:

Robert was born in St. Thomas, Ontario, and passed away peacefully at St. Mary's General Hospital in Kitchener on Friday, March 10, 2023, at the age of 77. He resided in Guelph for over 30 years and formerly lived in London.

Robert is survived by his children Emma Dahms and her child Sebastien (Baz) Dahms, Jonah Melville, Crystal Melville, Leon Melville, and Jessica Melville.
 
His former spouse Judith Melville.

Many Nieces and Nephews and their families.

Predeceased by his parents James Melville (1962) and Iola (nee Berry) (1997); siblings June Melville (1936), Sue Langelaan (2000), Ann Brown (2010) and James Melville (2014).

Robert was a regular participant in the local Guelph music scene. He had a love of musical instruments and live music, especially the Blues. He also loved to paint and was often seen biking around the city of Guelph. 

The family would like to thank Robert's multi-faceted health team in Guelph and, more recently, Kitchener at Forest Heights LTC for all their compassion and care.

At Robert's request, cremation has taken place and his family will celebrate his life privately.

As expressions of sympathy, donations to the charity of your choice in his honour would be appreciated by the family (cards available at the funeral home). Arrangements entrusted to the Henry Walser Funeral Home, 507 Frederick Street, Kitchener, 519-749-8467.
