The staff, management, and board of Leaside Gardens join the community in mourning the passing of Dr. Bob Pashby. Bob and his family were tireless supporters of safety in our community and throughout the country, stewarding the legacy of their father Dr. Tom “Doc” Pashby. Bob and his siblings, Jane and Bill, represented the Dr. Tom Pashby Sport Safety Fund on the arena’s safety committee, and the “new” rink is named in their father’s honour: “The Doctor Tom Pashby Play Safely Rink”. Bob was a regular attendee at our adult community skate and will be missed by our extended arena community.
