Robert (Bob) Mealey, of Riverview, NB passed away on Tuesday,
May 18, 2021 at The Moncton Hospital. He was a kind, caring man with a
servant heart who devoted his time to his cherished wife, Barb and
their family. He loved family board games -- most recently on Zoom!
– and taking the grand-children to movies and buying them
ice-cream. Bob loved spending time in nature, and he and Barb were
consummate campers for many of their years together. For nearly
forty-seven years, he poured his time and talents into serving at
Whitepine Baptist Church in Riverview, recently visiting shut-ins with
much enthusiasm and dedication. He taught school for 33 years in
Centreville, Hartland, Sussex, Moncton and Riverview. He also coached
and mentored many; students continue to recall his innovative and
personalized instruction.
Born in Saint John, he was the son of the late Carl and
Muriel (Stanley) Mealey.
Bob is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Barbara; sons
Scott (Deborah), Chris (Jennifer), Mitch (Melanie) Mealey; his sister
Nancy Mealey, grandchildren: Aidan, Maclean, Josiah, Elwin, Maren,
Malcolm and his several nieces and a nephew.
Aside from his parents, Bob was predeceased by a treasured
nephew, Patrick Shaw.
