Robert “RJ” Sutherland, aged 82, of Sudbury, Ontario, passed away peacefully on August 31st, 2024, after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s. A beloved father, grandfather, and friend, RJ’s warmth and infectious spirit touched everyone who knew him.
RJ was the cherished father of Derek Sutherland and his wife Shannon, and Tracy Sutherland and her husband Don. His legacy lives on through his six grandchildren: Tyson, Reanna, Jackson, Peyton, and Kaelyn. He was predeceased by his granddaughter Cydney, whose memory brought him great comfort.
A devoted enthusiast of both boating and golf, RJ found immense joy on the water and the fairways. Yet, it was at Buzzy Browns in Sudbury that RJ’s heart truly thrived. There, among friends and familiar faces, he was a constant presence and a source of lively conversation, a testament to his deep connection with his community.
RJ’s generous spirit and zest for life will be dearly missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing him. His memory will forever be celebrated in the stories shared by his loved ones and the countless moments of joy he imparted throughout his life.
May he rest in peace, forever cherished in the hearts of those who loved him.
Arrangements entrusted to the Carson Funeral Homes L. Doolittle Chapel 54 Coldwater St. E., Orillia (705) 326-3595.
