MCEACHERN, Robert Douglas McEachern - September 29th, 2024

It is with heavy hearts we announce that Rob passed away peacefully at the age of 56, surrounded by his loving family, on Sunday September 29, 2024 at Lakeridge Health Oshawa. Rob gave cancer one hell of a fight, and protected those he loved right down to the end just as he always would.

Rob leaves behind his cherished wife and best friend of 36 years Sue. Adored father of Jessica Eldridge (Holden), and Robbie.

Devoted G-Pop of Easton and Ryerson.

Much Loved brother of Denise Cullen (Mike), Amanda Hansen and Shae Whalen (Lauren).

Son of Bonnie Aldridge (Geoffrey) and the late Robert McEachern.

Son in law of Don & Gloria Black.

Brother in law of Sandra McKee (Dave) and Kim Black.

Beloved uncle of Josh, Sarah, Christina, Kaitlyn (Owen), Rachel, Grayson, Nisa, Elleah, Phoenix, Jordan, Jared, Cienna and Bodhi.

Bonus dad to Sarah Thompson-Kelly (Ryan) and G-Pop to Callen and Keeva.

Sibling-like bond to Kristy Thompson-Whittaker (Julia) and Uncle to Rhys, Danica, and Miles.

Rob will be lovingly remembered by many more family members and friends.

Rob had an incredible sense of humor and the gift of gab, which he shared with everyone he met. He enjoyed fishing and the sunsets at the family cottage on Lake Consecon and he also had a great passion and love for hockey, but his favourite times were spent surrounded by family and close friends.

A Celebration of Life will be held at the Police Association hall at 725 Conlin Rd. Whitby, Ontario on Sunday October 27th from 1 pm – 4 pm, with a tribute taking place from 1 pm – 1:30 pm.

Donations in memory of Rob can be made to Hearth Place Cancer Centre and would be appreciated by the family.
