  1. Bob, you meant the world to me and I was proud to be part of the family. You always had a smile no matter what. We have sure had some good times over the years and you left a lasting memory. I just wanted to say thanks for the memories from the family reunions to the horseshoe games at Mom and Daddys and all the things that we done together. I will miss you my buddy.
