Robert Bagshaw

I'm a friend of Glen and through him I met Bob in a few occasions. Talking with Bob, he showed me that he was a man with human values, principles and integrity. That's all I needed to know to see the type of person he was. May is memory be a blessing.

My life with Bob and the Bagshaw family began in 1940. That summer they invited my family to visit Buccaneer Bay.
As we lived in the same block in Vancouver, his family was a very important part of my life growing up. Bob, Ralph and I were inseparable. Over the years we fed off each other’s strengths of which Bob had many. He was an inspiration to me and for that I am eternally grateful. We shared many experiences all of which created a strong bond. He was indeed a lifelong friend and I will truly miss him.

Bob was my 'boss' mentor and grest friend both on Vancouver and Toronto.
Bob and Bobbie were an amazing roll model couple to teens through Young Life back in the '60s. To the boys , friends, and family he is and will be a big loss. Bless you 'bouncing Bobby bagshaw'.

I met Bob, Bobbie and Glen through my husband and we spent many wonderful moments at their home on Bowen Island. Bob was always gracious, kind and conversations were always interesting because of his many experiences.

Bob was a key mentor in my husband’s life, for the Asia Pacific Management program. So I credit him for the opportunities that opened up for our family. You will be missed.

I first met Bob through our church as a teenager and later reconnected when he heard that I was in Japan after graduating from SFU. He introduced me to the APMCP program, which changed the direction of my professional and personal life. Bob was kind, gentle, funny, smart, and a true visionary. He treated many of us like his own family and was a great role model. My sincere condolences to Jeff and the entire Bagshaw family, and thank you for sharing your dad with us. He was one of a kind.

Thank you Bob ... there's not much more to be said!!

Your son, Glen Bagshaw, is my good friend. We’ve kept in close touch for decades, and we share so many wonderful memories together in Beijing.

Though I never had the chance to meet Robert Bagshaw in person, I can easily tell what a kind, gentle and noble man he was. May Robert Bagshaw rest in peace.

愿 Robert Bagshaw 安然安息。

Bob and his family have been part of shaping my life for more than 40 years. From Capilano College to Asia, and finally to our quieter, simpler life on beautiful Bowen Island, Bob was woven into so many of my happiest memories. Every time I saw him, he brought a smile to my face, and his kindness and spirit touched so many lives. He will be deeply missed. We loved you, Bob.

I had the great privilege and honour of being coached by Bob while attending Capilano College. We had a great team and achieved many on field successes, but more importantly this experience shaped us as young men through Bob's mentorship and leadership. He had high standards and expectations for us. He modelled the kind of behaviour and commitment every day that he wanted to see from this team. Since that time we have gone onto different careers, families and lives - but we are all bonded by these experiences, and by our beloved coach Bob Bagshaw. Bob you will be missed, but certainly never forgotten by your teams. Thank you for everything that you did for us!

Where to start.. From a very early age, Bob and his family were a big part of my life. So much so that I referred to him as Uncle Bob. I grew up with his family and spent many summers creating life long memories at the bay.
Bob was instrumental in my career direction and through APCMP I spent many years in Hong Kong where I met my wife and raised my kids. I have so much to thank him for. He will be missed but never forgotten as Uncle, coach, mentor and friend.
