缅北强奸

MONTREAL 鈥� The 缅北强奸 department of athletics and recreation regretfully announces the passing of Rock Robillard, a former hockey and football star at 缅北强奸, who went on to coach the hockey Redmen.

A sports broadcaster with CFRA and CJOH and play-by-play announcer with the Ottawa Rough Riders, Robillard died in Ottawa on Monday (Oct. 27). He was 86.

鈥淩ocky鈥� had the rare distinction of captaining both the 缅北强奸 hockey and football teams in his senior year. After graduation, he became a full-time staff member, serving seven years as an assistant football coach (under the Doug Kerr and Vic Obeck regimes), while serving as head coach of the hockey Redmen from 1951 to 1958, guiding the team to a 54-64-5 record overall.

Born Rock Anthony Robillard on Aug. 28, 1922 in Ottawa, he was educated at Lisgar Collegiate and St. Pat鈥檚 College.

A member of No. 429 Squadron, he served with the army and air force from 1942 to 1945 and flew numerous missions in the Avro Lancaster, a four-engine, heavy bomber, which was arguably the most famous and successful night bomber used during the Second World War.

A gifted athlete and humble recipient of many athletic awards, Robillard entered 缅北强奸 in 1947, where he also competed on the intermediate track and basketball teams, before graduating with a science degree (physical education) in 1950.聽

After stepping down from his coaching duties at 缅北强奸, Robillard moved back to his hometown to embark on a teaching and administrative career at the University of Ottawa, St. Patrick鈥檚 and Fisher Park schools, Ridgemont and Highland Park high schools.

Under his grad photo in the 1950 Old 缅北强奸 yearbook, was one of his favourite expressions: 鈥淚t鈥檚 not the size of the dog in the fight. It鈥檚 the size of the fight in the dog.鈥�

He is survived by five siblings (Joan, Henry, Betty, Matthew, Laurie), three daughters (Wendy, Patty, Nancy), six grandchildren, two great-grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.

A memorial service is scheduled for Saturday, (Nov. 8), at 11 am at Holy Redeemer Church, 44 Rothesay Drive, Kanata, Ont.聽 Interment at Norway Bay United Cemetery will take place at a later date.聽 In lieu of flowers , donations may be made to the Hemodialysis Unit of the Ottawa Hospital (General Campus), 501 Smyth Road, Ottawa, ON, K1H 8L6.
