Obituary of Robert Edwin Baigent

Baigent, Robert Edwin

My dear Dad, Robert (Bob) Baigent, passed away peacefully at Trillium Manor Oct 28, 2018.He was born March 18, 1935 to parents Wilfred and Elizabeth and had 5 siblings, Mildred, Elsie, Eleanor, Wayne and Marg. In 1958, he married Lucille (Joan) LaRose and in 1961 had a daughter Linda House.  Two much loved grandchildren followed in 1988 and 1991, Jeremy and Emily and in 2018 a beautiful great grandson, Andrew.  Dad was a very talented Millwright/Carpenter who took great pride in his work.  As a young girl I loved tagging along to help Dad with many home renovation projects.  Dad enjoyed the outdoors and catering to the squirrels, chipmunks and hummingbirds.

Dad enjoyed his extended care family at Trillium Manor as did they enjoy Dad's blue eyes with a twinkle, devilish smile and sense of humour. I cannot thank all the care team at Trillium Manor enough for giving Dad a home of care and love.

Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will take place at a later date. Arrangements entrust to the Simcoe Funeral Home, 38 James St. E. Orillia. As an expression of sympathy memorial donations may be made to Mariposa House Hospice.
