In Celebration of

David Roebuck

December 27, 1960 -  May 11, 2021

It is with profound sadness the Roebucks announce the passing of David L. Roebuck (Dec 27, 1960 - May 11, 2021). Dave will be missed by his loving wife Jane (nee Ronan) of 37 years and his kids and grandson: Sarah, Michael and his partner Carly Trenholme, and their son Hudson, and Chrissy and her husband Will Hunter, and Kevin the dog. Dave is survived by his loving parents Bob and Sylvia, and his brothers Randy (Mary Jane) and Ken (Sandra), and predeceased by his dear sister Kathy. Dave was blessed with a big extended family who will cherish their memories of their Uncle Dave, brother-in-law and chum. Dave’s greatest joy in life was his family and he loved every minute he spent with them. Whether it was Sunday dinners with the ‘Dave’s Faves’ playlist humming in the background, Christmas mornings or puttering in the backyard while everyone played in the pool. He was an honourable man; an unwavering guiding light of wisdom and determination for his wife and kids. Dave experienced incredible success in his professional life during his time at Johnson & Johnson, Lindt and ENJO Canada, which took his family to Texas, British Columbia, England and back to Toronto. When he wasn’t working or at home, you would find Dave on the golf course at Markland Woods, often playing 27 holes in one day, or having a Stella in the clubhouse with friends. Dave is somewhere now playing a few rounds with his father-in-law, Poppa, and hanging in the backyard with his beloved dogs Roxy and Harvey. His journey with ALS is done, he has not lost his battle, he has won. He lived through this unforgiving disease with unmatched courage and dignity. His motto in life and business was ‘Enjoy the Ride’ and that’s exactly what he did. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
