You will be missed Bob. Say hi to Grandma, Grandpa, mom and Billi. Love you. ❤️
Rest in Peace Bob, I have nothing but fond memories. All my love to the family.
I remember Bob from grade school and high school. He had a very likeable personality. My fond memory of Bob was his ability to laugh heartily without making a noise. I considered that an asset in a Catholic school where a nun with a ruler in hand dealt out immediate discipline when needed.
i went to Cathedral with Bob. We shared a few classes. Bob had a wicked sense of humor that made even the most dull class enjoyable. However, his humor was never at the expense of others. Bob was kind; and, possessed a warm & gentle smile. RIP Bob, you are missed already.. My condolences to the family.
