Steve passed away peacefully, surrounded by loved ones at Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital after an unexpected and sudden cardiac event. Steve was an incredibly generous, witty, and devoted man whose pride and joy in his family trumped all else. He was a dedicated employee of the Ford Motor Company for 35 years and always enjoyed sharing his talents of woodworking and carpentry with those around him. His hardworking hands and his never-ending enthusiasm for life will be sincerely missed by all of those who had the pleasure of knowing him. He was a loving husband to Durdica (Georgina) for 52 years. They met in Steve's home village of Marija Bistrica, Croatia and after 6 short weeks entered into a marriage that bloomed into a beautiful lifetime together. He took care of her for as long as his body physically allowed, and she reciprocated his love by caring for him during his 20-year battle with Parkinson's. In addition to his wife, Steve leaves behind his siblings Joza (Bozica), Anka (Drago), and Mica. His children Steve (Andie), Rose and David. As well as his grandchildren Veronica (Max), Elias, Damian, Sophia, Danielle, and Emily. He will be deeply missed by all. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Holy Trinity Catholic Parish.

Bob was born June 5, 1927 to Percy and Elizabeth (Bittle) Stone in Toronto, Ontario. In 1947, Bob started his lifetime career in the retail fashion industry with the Hudson Bay Company (HBC). Over the next 12 years, he worked for HBC in Toronto, Montreal, Winnipeg, Calgary, North Bay and Edmonton. In the 1960's, he established his own women's fashion store (Robert Stone Fashions) at Oak Queen Mall in Oakville. Future expansion included a 2nd Robert Stone Fashions in Oakville, as well as stores in Mississauga, Barrie, Galt and, finally, Hamilton. Bob had a strong sense of community and service. In 1952, he went into the Reserve Army in Calgary and took a Commission as a Lieutenant in the Ordinance Corps. He belonged to the Rotary Club of Oakville for 30 years, serving in many capacities, including President. He was a member of St. Jude's Anglican Church in Oakville since 1964, where he held many positions, including People's Warden and President of the Garden Guild. For his devotion and service to the church, Bob was a Recipient of the Order of Niagara. Bob enjoyed spending time with his many friends, particularly the Friday Oakville Boys Coffee Club, and playing bridge in the Probus Bridge Club. He had a passion for gardening, loved to travel, and enjoyed a good day's fishing. For decades, his lovebird, Sunshine, could be found perched on Bob's shoulder while he went about his chores.

Your cheery ways and smiling face, are a pleasure to recall; you had a kindly word for each, and died beloved by all. Heavy are our hearts today, memory brings you back once more, to the time when you were with us, to the happy days of yore. A sweet little flower, nipped in the bud, no grief or sorrow knew; just came to earth to win our love and then to Heaven withdrew. No stain was on your little heart, sin had not entered there; and innocence slept sweetly on that pale white brow so fair. Gone is the face we loved so dear, silent is the voice we loved to hear. The rolling stream of life rolls on. But still the vacant chair recalls the love, the voice, the smile of the one who once sat there. OBITUARIES
