Obituary of Bob McKeough
McKEOUGH, BOB – He dedicated his life striving for constant self improvement in all that he did, whether it was fatherhood, being a husband, coaching or being a mentor, cross country, hand-to-hand combat, hockey, and of course his favorite passion, golf. Like a true competitor, he was never afraid to step into the ring and he fought the good fight right up until his 73rd year.
Bob McKeough of Petawawa, beloved and respected husband of Geraldine “Jeri” McKeough (nee Hudlin). Bob’s son Dallas McKeough and his wife Krista will always admire Bob for his quick wit, great spirit and for the many athletic endeavours he set out on. He was loved by his fur grandbabies – in which there were many. His family will cherish many fond memories of Bob’s passion for golf, cross country skiing, running, the Petawawa Legion, his family and mentoring our next generation of brave soldiers. Son of the late Gerry & Stella McKeough. Brother of Donalda McCue (Franklin). Uncle of John McCue.
