Gonna miss that smile and chance meetings we would have on the walking trail. Rest, Uncle Bob…Sorry for your loss Steve and Bobby. Love you Bill and Thumper

So sorry to have lost a terrific uncle. I always looked forward to seeing him at the festival car shows and occasionally jogging on the trail. What a great sense of humor he had and was always happy and smiling. That always made me feel good even when I wasn’t having a good day. I will miss him greatly. Hey, Uncle Bob…say “Hi” to Dad and tell everyone up there we miss them all and think of them often! Love Ya!!
