BLAIR, Robert Andrew
The fight was long and hard fought with courage, dignity and hope. Another marathon however this one he couldn’t finish. Rob died at home with family peaceful and quietly as he wished on April 23, 2023. In his 75th year. A loyal and supportive husband to Shona for 53 years, father of Loren and Dougal, father in law of David, and grandfather of Caleb, Bill, Emma and Mark who were all his pride and joy. Grateful thanks for all the ongoing and generous support from the Queenstown Cancer Society, Southland Hospice team and Queenstown District Nurses. Your help made coping through these last three and a half years more bearable. Rob’s request was for no funeral, however donations can be made to Hospice Southland, Queenstown Cancer Society and the District Nurses social fund.
