ROBERT D. LAY

1959 - 2024


It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Robert (Rob) D. Lay on May 7, 2024.

He is survived by his loving wife, Kim, and daughter, Jasmine, as well as siblings, Doug (Judi), Barb (Renée), Kelly, and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, Fred and Audrey.

Rob was a devoted family man, taking great pride and care in his family. He thrived on the challenge of figuring out how things worked and being able to repair them.

Rob was a certified Automotive Technician, working in the industry just shy of 45 years at 300 Pembina Hwy., currently Murray Jeep Ram.

Thank you to the numerous medical personnel who helped him throughout his battle with cancer.

Cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life, and private interment will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers donations can be made to CancerCare Manitoba.

"Those we love don’t go away; they walk beside us every day…

unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear."

  • I knew Rob all the way through Junior high school, High school, automotive pre-employment and apprenticeship. I worked with him at the same dealership for just short of 40 years. He was a very dedicated and talented technician and a good friend. Rest in peace Rob. - Posted by: Richard Cohen (Friend and co-worker.) on: May 22, 2024
