It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Robert Howard Shaw, who left us on November 3rd, 2024 at the age of 67. He was a resident of Dundas and will be remembered for his love of curling and also ice making. It brought him joy for people to curl on the ice that he made.

Born on September 2nd, 1957, Robert was known for his love of cars, camping, and had a long time involvement in Scouting Canada. Robert is survived by his three children Carolyn Shaw (Abraham Klein), Hilary Shaw, and Turner Shaw (Janel Cain). Predeceased by his father Clarence “Dude” Shaw. Survived by his mother Alice (Shaw) Black (nee Job), and three siblings Jane Charles, Ren Shaw, and David Shaw. He will also be remembered by his niece Christine Charles (Vinod Rajasekaran), nephew Richard Shaw, and great niece and nephew Simi and Sachin, who will remember him fondly. 

A service to celebrate his life will be held on November 9th 2024 at 11:00 a.m. at Christ’s Church Cathedral, 252 James St. North, Hamilton. All are welcome to join us in remembering Robert Shaw and the moments we shared. Limited parking at the rear of the church.
