With great sadness, we say goodbye to our friend, colleague, and mentor, Dr. Robert Stalker.
As young physiotherapists, Bob took us (Mike and Anita) under his wing. He encouraged us to join him on a trip to Washington University in St. Louis to learn from Shirley Sahrmann—an experience that ultimately helped shape our careers as physiotherapists.
Those trips became an annual tradition, and through them we gained not only invaluable knowledge but also lifelong friendships. Bob was a larger-than-life presence, always introducing us to others, opening doors, and making sure we got the very most out of every opportunity.
Over the years, Bob was incredibly generous with his time, knowledge, and support of both us and our clinic. More importantly, he was a wonderful friend whose impact on our lives and the lives of so many others will never be forgotten.
Thank you, Bob, for your mentorship, kindness, and unwavering belief in us. We are forever grateful.
Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, colleagues, and everyone whose life he touched. He will be deeply missed.
