In loving memory of Robert Aidan Fitzharris (Bob) who sadly died on 20th August 2024 peacefully at home surrounded by family. Devoted husband to Lesley, loving father to Rosie, Sooze & Cat, father-in-law to Andrew, Thierry & Tom, proud grandfather to Samuel, Emelia, Isabella, Isla, Lara, Cian, Lucas & Conor, beloved brother to Patricia, special uncle, brother-in-law and great friend to many. From his first career as a respected family dentist in Sheffield, through to his appointment as vicar of St Peters Bentley from 1992-2001 and Archdeacon of Doncaster from 2001-2011, along with his active involvement in many local charities, Bob will be sadly missed by many.

We were so sorry to hear your sad news. We so enjoyed the times we shared with you all in Dinnington and I continued to see Bob regularly at the DBE and synod. He did so much in the diocese and will be sadly missed. Love and best wishes to you all. We remembered Bob and you all in our intercessions on Sunday. Geoff and Jennifer Gillard and friends from Dinnington St. Leonard's. XX

It's very sad news. We remember Bob from his Rock House days. He and Lesley were always so hospitable, and always had time for everyone. Many condolences to Lesley and family. RIP Bob, you will be singing with the Angels

I hold tightly onto my memories of Bob at St Peter’s. The ‘fun dad’ of my dear friend Rosie. Many happy days and nights spent at Rock house from hamsters being born in the bathroom, drop scones on the aga and the Sunday lunches; always extra people round the table. Sending love to all and I’m so sorry not to be able to make the funeral. X
