Rob’s family would also like to make special mention of Michelle Melnychuk. “Thank you for always being there for Rob. We know Rob was eternally greatful for your unconditional friendship, love, support and care through sickness and we appreciate you going above and beyond. We are so glad he had you in his life.”
He was predeceased by his parents Roger and Edna Greenaway and by his siblings Patricia Greenaway, Larry Greenaway, Michael Greenaway, Richard Greenaway, Susan Koehler, and Wendy Greenaway.
Rob was a kind hearted soul who cared deeply about others even though he didn’t always know how to show it, but you always knew he cared. He always surrounded himself with friends, family members and loved ones and was always ready to have a good time.
Rob loved to enjoy some laughs and fun around a raging bonfire. Rob enjoyed the outdoors and nature but never seemed to be fully prepared for nature outings. Fishing without a boat anchor and playing with fireworks around the bonfire and laughing when things didn't always go as planned, are some of the moments between a father and son that memories are made of and will last till the end of time. He loved to joke around and laugh and smile.
Rob was a free spirit and as many who knew him have often said, he was a "true diamond in the rough". He loved the wind in his hair flying down the open road, catching bugs in the face while riding his motorcycle - he felt at peace and free. Now he can drive fast with no restrictions and have endless laughs with the family and friends that have been waiting for him to join them up in heaven.
Rob touched far too many lives and will be missed dearly. He had so many long lasting friendships and his family are so grateful he had so much love and support. “You left far too soon with far too much left to say and do. Although you're no longer with us in body, you’ll remain with us in our memories, but mostly in our hearts.” This is not goodbye as we all know you would never say, but see ya later gator. You are loved and will be missed everyday. Until we meet again.
Rob will be privately remembered by his family and friends.
If friends so desire, memorial tributes in Rob’s name may be made directly to the charity of one’s personal choice.
