Maxine, WE are so sorry to hear of Bob passing. Our hearts go out to you. I guess Bob and Tucker can catch up now (with no supervision – er ah that will be interesting). I will always remember the Breakall house hold in Brooks – our favorite place, as Susan said. All the hunting trips, Bob setting the “style” agenda (and your hot lunches) It continued like that when Barb and I brought our family over for the visit to the lake and Bob brought all the girls to Dinosaur Provincial Park. Nicole still goes to Tyrell Museum every year where she often gets in arguments with 6 year old kids (she is 23 now). Bob started her down that road, well the interest in dinosaurs anyway. And cabooses. Your family will always be part of ours and in our hearts, always.

Dear Maxine and family. We are deeply saddened to learn of Bob’s passing. We have very fond memories of him, your family, his Mom and Dad and your place at the lake. Hopefully we can get together soon and reminisce. Our heartfelt sympathy and our thoughts are with you.

Dear Maxine,

I’ve just now heard the sad news of Bob’s passing and had to get in touch to send some thoughts to you, Rob and Mark. Bob was so warm and friendly and cheerful — and wonderfully hospitable. Like others who’ve written to you here, I can’t help but smile when I think of him. I have such good memories of being a guest in your homes, as a child and an adult. Going to the Breakells was always something special. You and Bob were such good friends to my father — thank you for that.

Thinking of you,

Susan

Dear Maxine and family,

I was saddened to hear of Bob’s passing.He will be missed by many. I will always remember the kindness and generosity that you and Bob extended to me some thirty years ago at the couples shower you planned for me. It still remains one of the highlights in my life. What fun we had! I can still hear the laughter especially Bob and my dad off in a corner like two school boys carring on.

Maxine you are one of the strongest women I know and I believe his strengh will carry you through this difficult time. I am thinking of you and your family.

All my Love, Alix Nesbitt

Dear Maxine

Faye and I were so saddened to hear of Bob’s passing. My main memory of Bob was when he phoned me at 2:00 AM with the question “Is this Dougie Luxford C.A.? As you may recall, we both received our degrees in 1964 and had earlier that evening celebrated the event in fine style! Remember when the four of us were playing bridge at our house one winter night and the last thing I noticed was you driving your vehicle and Bob lying on the car hood facing you and acting as your windshield wipers as you disappeared around the corner!

So many fun times— sorry we did not get together with you both in later years.

Our sincere condolences–our best to you and your family–every time I think of Bob a smile comes to my face.

Love Doug and Faye

Please accept our deepest condolences on your loss. Having known Bob for many years, I was quite shocked to hear the news. I always respected his opinion, and enjoyed talking to him. He will be missed greatly.

Sorry to note that Bob Breakell has passed away. Bob and Maxine were our neighbours in the 1960s and we enjoyed their company very much. I am sorry that we have lost contact over the years. My condolences to Maxine and family.

Our condolences to you and your family, Maxine, on the loss of your husband, father and grandfather during this time of sorrow.

Dear Maxine, Robbie, Mark and families:

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Bob. I often think of the many, many good times out at the lake in Brooks, I must say it was a highlight for me to spend the weekend in Brooks with my kids and your family. We are all deeply sorry. Last summer I was out at the lake at another cabin and I actually knocked on the door of the new owners hoping for a glimpse inside. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this diffuclt time. You have a lifetime of laughs and memories to cherish as I know I will my memories of your family.

Sincerely, Pam Bouman

Dear Maxine, Robbie and Mark,

Bob was a long time friend of my brothers Art and Vic.

We have truly lost a great friend. We had great times in Medicine Hat and at Lake Newell with you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Maxine, Mark and family, I was so sorry to hear of Bobs passing. He was such a wonderful man!!! When he came into the dental office, I always looked forward to his visit. We talked about so many things from his fishing trips to his business meetings. Even though I retired last December after 31 1/2 years with Orin I always missed seeing all our special patients and he was one I will remember with fondness. He will surely be missed by all who knew and loved him. Take care.Debbie @ Dr.Harkers (now retired) A special hello to Mark.

Maxine, my Dad David and I knew you and Robert only for for a very short time. Robert was so friendly, so kind hearted , so thoughtful. I will forever remember the concern both of you showed to my Dad. I extend my condolences to you and your family .
