Bob Burgess

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of friend and former Thetis Islander Bob Burgess. He passed away peacefully in Sidney this past weekend. Bob lived out on Pilkey Point for a number of years with his wife Jean Tannahill. He is survived by his two sons Brady and Scott, stepchildren Camplin, Kate and Kennedy. Bob was an entrepreneur having been an early developer of rainwater catchment systems on the Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island. He loved sailing, was a kind, mellow and cultured man.
