Bob was an avid SCUBA diver, cyclist, and golfer. He travelled the world, was a treasure hunter, and always had a biscuit for a dog. In 2003, he rode his bicycle across Canada. People gravitated to him and were captivated by stories of his life and adventures. If a social gathering had a dance floor, he was on it. He was a Supervisor when he retired from Stelco after 37 dedicated years, and was an electrician by trade. The youngest of 21 children, he was born and raised in Dunnville, Ontario. Survived by wife of 50 years Marcia Dianne (nee Dickhout), their daughter Amy Lynn Passmore, and son Dr. Steven Robert Passmore (Cheryl Glazebrook). He was affectionately known as “Bumpa Bob” to grandsons Reed Robert, Trent Dennis and Gaven Kenneth Passmore. Predeceased by father Edgar Mortimer Passmore, and mother Belinda Ethel (nee Ecker), stepfather George Terry and his 16 siblings.
