Condolence: I can't believe it's been almost 10 years (2011) since I was sitting in Mr. Viggers class in the first grade learning about syllables on the very first day. He's amazing way of teaching that brought the whole class together, and the endless times we would have class talk parties. I can't thank him enough for the awesome experiences he gave me during my first grade. I still remember watching the movie "A Little Princess" on one of our last days at W.J Watson. I still watch that movie to this day. And the memory of this amazing teacher is always with me. I can't thank him enough for the amazingness he shared with all the students at W.J Watson. Now, looking back at his wonderful and short life he had, I see him in his wonderful children and the students he taught. The memories I shared will always be in my heart for the rest of my life. I can't thank him enough for making my journey through my first year an absolute joy. In the memory of an amazing teacher, Mr. Viggers June 17th, 2021 Shinzan Murray (Former Student)

Condolence: Rob, a great father to our daughters. I wonder what might have been. I loved our years together. Rest in peace. I will look after our daughters and commemorate the memories. Always and forever. Liz

Condolence: Jessica, Isabella, Mary, Annie, Ashton, Presley and Allison my prayers and thoughts are with you at such a difficult time. Mr. Viggers I will never forget the many hallway conversations we have had over the years. Walking into Watson just won't feel the same with you not there. Thank you for always stopping to say "Hi" even if we were just passing by each other in the halls, it truly made a difference.

Condolence: Our Sincerest Condolences. Our family was very fortunate to have meet Mr. Viggers on many occasions at WJ Watson School and around town. He was our son Chris's teacher and he was more than a good teacher, he was an extraordinary teacher and person! The minute we meet him, we all felt at complete ease and he treated us wonderfully! He made us all feel included in every aspect of our sons education, despite the difficulties that can come with being a blended family. He was friendly, fair, kind, caring, thoughtful, funny and genuine! There's not enough great words to express the exceptional person he was. It was bitter sweet when our son passed his grade. We were extremely happy our son passed but we were all somewhat sad to leave such an amazing teacher and person! After our son had passed his grade, we continued to go back and visit with Mr. Viggers at ever opportunity over many years. My husband, myself and family always enjoyed running into him in town. He spoke proudly of his family, his lovely wife and precious children. He will be thought of in the highest of regards by all! He will be sadly missed but his amazing legacy will live on with his wonderful family/children and the countless students he inspired with his exceptional teaching and genuine heart! You're in our thoughts and prayers and if there is anything we can do, please let us know. Our sincerest, deepest condolences. God Bless...

Condolence: I look back at some of the best years of my life and they Include Robby, Wilf, Paul & Jody, times I miss and think of often. They were trips in the middle of the night for wings or summer activities, snacks and pizzas, Concerts and track meets. We would stay up all night and wait till 7am then go for pancakes and breakfasts so we wouldn't cheat on a "no eating between 7pm - 7am diets". Rob's favourite McDonald's order was 4 plain burgers, fries, nuggets, chocolate shake and a diet coke LoL. He was fun and maybe only 1 or 2 people in this world could have anything bad to say about Robby, out of 1000's that's amazing asRob was . Too yonge and far too early are my thoughts , but I would like to say thank you Robby for your friendship always.

Condolence: Dear Jessica and the rest of the Viggers family, we are so sorry to hear of Robbie's passing. He was always so funny and helpful with the dance kids at recitals and otherwise and we'll never forget he and Allie's 'Hey There Little Black Eyed Susie' dance. He just radiated love for you and his children. DeeAnn, Brian, Kevin and Lauren

Condolence: Thank you Rob for being who you were to my granddaughter Jessica, and great grand children Allison, Presley, and Ashton. Also the father to Belle, Mary, and Anne. You were an example to all men of what a father/family man could be. I know that you will be missed.

Condolence: Robbie, you have been a good friend for many years. You lived your life as an intelligent, gentle, compassionate and capable man. I knew that I could confide with you as a friend on all that was happening in my life, and I will greatly miss our visits and phone calls. You have worked diligently to build a wonderful family and home, now it is time to rest. I have so many great memories of our time together when we were younger, and will also cherish the memories of visits to your home in Keswick. My thoughts and condolences are with the Viggers family during this difficult time.

Condolence: Our condolences to the Viggers family on your loss. Rob's footsteps will be followed by those of his children and the many others he influenced during3 his teaching career. May he rest in peace.

Condolence: I worked with Rob during his brief time at Morning Glory P.S. We were neighbours, with our classrooms next door to one another. He was embarking on his journey with Jessica and Ashton and we had many chats before and after school standing in our doorways. I will always remember his devotion as a father and his optimistic outlook. He exuded positivity and would do anything to help anyone. My thoughts are with the family.

Condolence: Jessica and family, Jason, Connor, Riley and I are so sorry for your loss. Rob was an amazing and devoted husband and father and a wonderful teacher, colleague and friend. Our sincerest sympathies. XO

Condolence: My son Evan and two nephews have all had the honour of having Mr Viggers as there teacher. He truly understood children with his patience, kindness and positive attitude. I loved how he encouraged creativity in his teaching, which children love. Evan always came home expressing how much he enjoyed school and thought Mr Viggers was just the greatest. Our family will miss him terribly. Our prayers are with his family. Sooley Family

Condolence: Will miss Rob so very much. He would call me Mrs. Awhiggins and I would call him Mr. Whiggers. Such a kind, warmhearted, funny man who so loved his job. The children just gravitated to him, he was so loved at W.J. Watson. I will so miss our chats, seeing him come back from lunch with sweet Allie skipping along in front of him, her ponytail swaying back and forth, not a care in the world. Watson will not be same without Rob walking the halls. There is a huge angel in heaven now with all the wee angels following his every move. Until we meet again Mr. Whiggers, God bless. Love Mrs. G (Mrs. Awhiggins)

Condolence: I am terribly saddened by Robbie's passing. What a difficult thing for his family who meant so much to him. I will keep fond memories of the many days of friendship in public school and high school, the many pizzas eaten together at Judy's Pizza, the many evenings spent hanging out with Robbie, Dan and Mike at my parents' house, and so many other things. I last saw Robbie when he came over to help me load my old things from my parents' old house into a U-Haul in January, 2013. He was always ready to help, tell a story and smile. Robbie, you've gone too soon. My thoughts are with your family.

Condolence: This gentle giant will be sorrily missed by all who knew him. Will miss our chats around school. Sending prayers and hugs to the Viggers family.
