<div itemprop="description">ROBERT WAYNE CHEALE <br>March 11, 1946 - March 29, 2017 <br> It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Wayne on Wednesday, March 29, 2017 with his wife by his side. Wayne’s memory will be cherished by his wife of 27 years Delores; his sons Ryan, Kevin (Kristina), Curtis (Karen), Derek (Peggy), and Dean (Patricia). He will be greatly missed by his 11 grandchildren; Keziah, Nevaeh, Darrian, Austin, Dylan, Jordan, Benjamin, Brittany, Mandy, Derek, and Curtis. Also survived by his brother Edward “Ted”, and several cousins. <br> Wayne was born and raised in St. James. He would often look back fondly on times playing football in the streets with the neighborhood kids, recounting exact names and plays decades later. Wayne was diagnosed with Polio at the age of 10, and later lost a lung as a result. Wayne was told he wouldn't make it to 28 but through hard work, living a healthy lifestyle, Wayne surpassed all expectations having turned 71 only weeks ago. Wayne attended St. James Collegiate before enjoying a 33 year career with the Courts of Queens Bench. Wayne was predeceased by his parents Robert and Ruth and his dog Fritz. <br>Wayne with his wife Del enjoyed many adventures and trips across Canada and winters in Hawaii and Arizona. A very devoted father and grandfather, whether it was teaching his sons hockey or golf, watching soccer games, volleyball, or endless swim meets, he was always there to cheer on his kids and grandkids. Up until a year ago Wayne was an avid golfer and remained a big fan of most sports. In his later years he could often be found in his La-Z-Boy watching the Bombers, Jets, Golf, and Curling, always yelling his opinion that would always make you laugh. <br>The family would like to thank the staff at Grace Hospital for their compassion and care to Wayne during his final days, finally allowing him comfort. Wayne was such a good man, he brought so much joy and laughter to every life he touched and will be greatly missed by his large family and many friends. <br> As per Wayne’s request, cremation has taken place and a private family interment and celebration of Wayne’s life with friends and family will be held July 22, 2017 from 1-3 pm at The Charleswood Legion, 6003 Roblin Blvd. Flowers are gratefully declined and the family requests donations may be made in Wayne’s name to a charity of your choice. <br></div>
