Robert Black Owens passed away peacefully February 20, 2012 at the age of 83 years. Robert is survived by his loving wife Paddy; children, Rob of Langley, BC and Janice (David) of Armstrong, BC; two grandchildren; brother Ted of Victoria, BC; as well as many cousins. Robert was a member of the Garnett Valley Gang as “Curly Bob”. He was a true horseman and a cowboy in the truest sense of the word – in his beliefs and how he lived his life. He loved his horses and dogs. His family fondly referred to him as “Cowboy Bob”. A memorial gathering for Bob will be held at a later date. Memorial Tributes in Bob’s memory may be made to the South Okanagan Similkameen Brain Injury Society, #2 - 996 Main St., Penticton, BC V2A 5E4.
