Uncle Bob was a wonderfully warm and caring person. I will always remember him as incredibly sweet and fun-loving, and I hope that all of you are able to cherish the many happy memories and the good times you and your children have shared with him. He will always be with each of you….

Bob was a great man. He was a great husband, father and friend. Bob always tried to see the good in people, and would never talk badly about anyone. He was very loving and kind. I can still hear his laugh. His greatest legacy is his beautiful family. His family values will live on in them.
