I did not know Bob really well however as a member of Saint Francis Parish l knew him for a a long time he was always so cheerful and nice I enjoyed talking with him any chance l could. You could see the love between him and his wife Jan I also enjoyed seeing and speaking to her and sometimes watching her play the piano for mass my husband George (passed june 7 2022 )was very fond of him and told me stories of his conversation with him if I am correct both he and Jan perform together in Vaudeville? My Thoughts and prayers for Jan and the family I think heaven will be a little brighter with him there

Leslie and Family:
This is a moment to reflect of the amazing lives that Mr. Bob impacted. Rest in knowing angels keep an eye on our happiness and needs. They´re in our hearts and surround us daily. When you are fortunate to experience one in the physical being on earth, especially one with spunk like Mr. Bob, know that you are fortunate. In his memory, make sure you laugh a lot, cry a little, but most importantly continue to live with spunk in his honor. We are here for you in every way.
Your PNC Family!

When ever I saw Bob I would ask him if he was behaving. His answer with a big smile was always, "No, that's no fun."

What a BEAUTIFUL light in this world...Bob Whitehouse!!! My children have the confidence and compassion in their souls largely due to the love, support and guidance from both Bob and Jan. The love they poured into our family for the bulk of our lives is immeasurable and we will forever be gratefully blessed. The values and the pure joy they shared with so many through Twinklelites, Spotlite Kidz and Center Stage has been life changing and life shaping to every child with the honor to call Bob their mentor. I will always remember the huge smile on his face, the love in his heart and the compassion, hard work and dedication he put into each costume and sound set-up of every heartwarming performance they did. Bob was the true example of the love of Jesus Every Single Day! Thank you Bob for being such an incredible light and positive influence to our family. Can't wait to see you again in heaven!
Sincerely, the Hayn Family. Dejay, Sherri, Jayden and Elizabeth.
