Bob will be greatly missed as a friend and neighbor. When he and Mary lived in the Colonies my dog Sherwood and I would stop by to chat on their back deck. Bob always had a ready smile and and a kind word. He was a true friend and masonic brother. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Uncle Bob was the kindest, most generous man. He was well loved by all his family and we thoroughly enjoyed how he and Aunt Mary brought all the family together for holiday meals and picnics every year! He will be missed greatly and we will have cherished memories of him thru the years.
