So sorry to read of Robert's passing, he was a great teacher, and when I think of Thompson, I fondly remember this gentle soul of a man.
I spent only a year being taught by Rob, but will always remember him as being one who cared deeply about his students..
God bless ..

Blair, Sean, Jeanette and Ken
We were saddened to hear of Bob's passing. Bob and I had many good years both in scuba and sailing, and Rosalie spent many years teaching with him at Thomson. And we had many gatherings with Bob and Joan when we all had small children.
At all times, Bob was a true gentleman, a loving husband and Dad. We truly cherish our memories of those times with Bob.
We are out of town on Wed., but our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family as you experience this difficult time.

To the family of Robert Shebib:
Robert was a kind, generous, comforting, man and an excellent teacher, and was one of the boys to our mother who he taught with at St. Mary's, then at Thompson High School.
Robert would always stop for a chat, come to visit our parents, and would always drop in a jar of jam after Halloween.
He will be missed by so many family and friends and you will have so many good memories of him to help you in the days ahead. Blair, remember you and I have the same birthday, your mother went into labor the day of our brother's wedding June 10,1972. Robert will be greatly missed and may God surround you all with his loving arms and God Bless you all. So sorry we can't make the funeral. Your father is now with Joan and oh so happy.
God Bless,
Maureen, Ann Eileen and Kevin Fyfe
