Phibbs, Bob

Phibbs, Bob 

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Robert (Bob) Phibbs of Strathmore on March 6, 2021, at the age of 70; after a short but courageous battle with cancer.

Bob was born to Jack and Isabel Phibbs of Hanna, Alberta.  After High School he attended the AG Mech Course at Olds College.  From there, he went on to work for the City of Calgary as a Heavy Duty Mechanic, eventually becoming their Safety and Training Officer until his retirement in 2005.  In recent years, Bob could often be found having coffee at the local Timmies, or riding his buggies around the mountains of Arizona.

Bob is survived by his wife, of 49 years, Lorna; his two sons, Aaron (Natalie), Travis (Marie); his two awesome grandsons, Seth (Aaron), Jamison (Travis); and his brother Bill.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Foothills Country Hospice in Bob’s name, and let’s toast Bob together after Covid.
