Robert ROUT

Bob passed away suddenly in Whangarei on Saturday, 26 September 2026, aged 70. A very much loved father and father-in-law of Allie and Kyle, and stepfather of Luke and Anna. Loved brother and brother-in-law of Frank and Vicki, Alison and Grant. Grandad to Quincy. Beloved uncle to Andrew and Amy, Andrew and Matthew. Bob worked for many years overseas, he traveled far and wide. Along the way he had many adventures, always taking the roads less travelled (usually by bike!). He had a passion for adventures, sailing and in recent years playing music. Bob will be sadly missed by his family, friends and colleagues. Two Farewell Memorials are planned for Bob: one locally in Whangarei and one in Palmerston North later this year. Details for these will be confirmed.
