Bob was a great story teller, and entertained us with many tales of his adventures when we were young. He had an infectious love of life and though i had not seen uncle bob in the past years, I have thought of him often. He will be missed.

Patrice and Tiffany. I am sorry to hear this (I realize it is considerably belated). I only met your dad a couple of times, but he left an impression as a man who spoke the truth with respect. I hope your hearts have had time to heal as much as is possible. Dwight
