Robert E. MorellRobert ‘Bob’ Morell was born in Verdun in 1949, raised in Lachine, and now lives with his Jamaican-born wife, Camille, in Dorval, Québec. Bob has two sons, Jon and Ben, and two grandsons, Eddie and Arthur, who are the joys of his life. A retired chemist, Bob thoroughly enjoyed a 41-year career as a pharmaceutical lab technologist. After retiring in 2009, he has served as a volunteer.  He volunteered at the Teresa Dellar Palliative Care Residence, where he performed a weekly shift in the kitchen for over 10 years. He currently volunteers in the chapel at the Cowansville Correctional Institution, where he has served for more than 15 years. Bob is a member of Communitas, a non-profit organization that supports inmates and former inmates. In his own words, “My book Bob Appetit brings together my love of cooking and my passion for prison ministry. The book was originally meant to be a gift to ex-inmates so that they could prepare simple, nutritious, tasty meals. All profits from book sales are donated to Communitas.” A former long-distance runner, a veteran of 20 marathons, Bob still enjoys running, as well as kayaking, cycling, and tennis. Bob has begun passing on these skills to his grandsons as well as his extended family of former inmates. If publishing Bob Appetit has taught Bob anything, it is that it is never too late to try something new.
