SWEET, Robert Maurice - Bob passed away in Saint John NB Regional Hospital on February 23, 2013 at the end of a good and full life, with his wife May and his children Shawn, Christine and Natalie at his side. He was born in Windsor Nova Scotia in 1932 to Robert Edward Sweet and Mona Rosetta (Lake) Sweet. Bob grew up on Nesbitt Street aka “the Island”, with his older brothers Arthur and Charles, and younger brothers George and David. Bob and May (Mabel Bosnick) were married in Hearst, Ont. in 1961 and lived in Cochrane and Moncton before making their home in Rothesay New Brunswick. Since his retirement from NBTel, Bob and May enjoyed travelling to visit their children and their families: Shawn, Danielle, Cameron and Brandon in North Carolina; Christine, Gord and Charlotte in British Columbia; and Natalie, Rob, Abby and Maggie in Alberta. Bob’s professional career included early work with Maritime Tel & Tel, the Iron Ore Company of Canada and the Northern Ontario Railway, and then many years with NBTel as a systems engineer. Beginning with his early days at Windsor Academy and continuing for six decades wherever he lived, Bob always excelled at team sports, including rugby, baseball and hockey. He was a valued team member and an excellent coach, generously sharing his skills and knowledge with young people. He participated in activities that made the community a better place to live, particularly the work of the Lions Club. Funeral services took place in Rothesay NB in February, with subsequent committal of his ashes at Maplewood Cemetery in Windsor, Nova Scotia. On Saturday July 13th, Bob’s family will welcome his friends at the home of his brother David, 423 Town Road, Falmouth, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm. All are welcome to come and share their stories about Bob with his family.
