Robert Burns McEwen Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on March 17, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Robert Burns McEwen (Suffolk, Virginia). You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let his loved ones carry forward the torch of his memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of his love and the brilliance of his spirit. Though Robert may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, his essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.

He is survived by: his wife Diana McEwen; and his sisters, Liz Albertson (Chuck) and Susan Chesson. He is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and many special friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research at michaeljfox.org.
