CAREY, Robert “Rob” Carey

Passed away unexpectedly at the age of 65 years.  Loved and missed by his wife Lisa and his children Danielle (Andrew), Eric and Ben. Cherished grandpa of Deegan, Tate and Gwen.  Survived by his mother Mary Angeline (late father Val), brothers Richard (Blanche) and Ron (June) and by his many nieces and nephews. Also remembered by his mother-in-law Marie and father-in-law Raymond.

He served Toronto Fire in Scarborough for 32 dedicated years. When he was not saving lives, he loved being with his family, tinkering in his shop, travelling and riding his motorcycle.  Rob didn’t just simply ride his bike. Rob encompassed every characteristic that defined the riding life. He looked for any opportunity to hit the open road and meet with friends.  When he wasn’t biking, Rob enjoyed travelling with his brothers and their families’ creating memories from many vacations abroad. Rob played hockey for his whole life, he loved the thrill of the game and sharing a cold one with his friends in the dressing room.  Rob had a passion for life, always up for an adventure as a true free spirit.  He loved to share these adventures and memories in front of a fire or by the pool. For those that knew him, they would say he was charismatic “one of a kind” and “they broke the mould.” He had a way with his words and with people.

We aspire to honour his legacy by living life to the fullest everyday:

“We’re here for a good time

not a long time

so have a good time

the sun can’t shine everyday.”
