Bob▼ joined the
Royal Canadian Air Force in 1929, serving in England, France
and across Canada. While stationed at Uplands Ottawa, he was
proud of his role in the building of affordable military housing
and in the volunteer construction of the Uplands Golf Course.
His role was recognized by naming the clubhouse "Kerr House".
Upon retiring in 1963, Bob joined the Ontario Department of Labour
in Construction Safety, where he earned the workers' respect
with his sense of dedication, integrity and fairness. His second
retirement allowed ample time for golf at the Ottawa Hunt Club
where he continued to play well into his 90s. Bob saw the best
in everyone and in every situation. He loved selflessly and wholly.
His energy and drive will be greatly missed. No more stairs to
climb.
