In Loving Memory of Dr. Robert ‘Bob’ Graham Sugarman
October 30, 1941 – December 30, 2025
It is with incredible love and sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Robert Graham Sugarman on December 30, 2025, at Red Deer Regional Hospital, with his family by his side.
Born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, on October 30th, 1941, Bob was the son of Dr. Harold and Edna Sugarman and brother to Betty Ann (Sugarman) Randall. He is survived by his wife Eleanor Sugarman with whom he shared 48 years of marriage, daughter Lana Sugarman and cat Maggie. Bob also leaves behind nieces and nephew Darci Raho (Mike), Leanne Neckrock, and Chris Randall (Robyn), and brother in-law Terry Randall (Margie), as well as many cousins and family friends.
Bob led a life full of laughter, kindness, and service. As an obstetrician and gynecologist, he delivered countless babies and assisted many surgeries. He was a dedicated volunteer and Rotarian for many years. Bob was a lover of animals, curling, golfing, an avid Blue Jays, Oilers, and Saskatchewan Roughriders fan and of spending time at The Lake. He always had a twinkle in his eye and could play a mean game of bridge and cribbage.
He will be forever missed by his family and all of the lives he touched along the way.
The family extends heartfelt thanks to Annette Bateson who lovingly cared for Bob at home and for the incredible staff at Taylorview Towers.
In memory of Bob, donations may be made to the Lending Cupboard, the Red Deer Food Bank or the Red Deer Humane Society in his name. The Sugarman family will host a private gathering to celebrate Bob’s life at their home on Sunday, March 15th.
