Lingley!!! You've left us too soon mate. I will miss your laugh, which was infectious and genuine. The sound of it will never leave me. We had so many nights out on town, back in the day, when you had us doubled over laughing about something silly and absurd. I hope you have found peace.

Bob's laugh is one I will never forget along with the devilish twinkle in his eye. We shared many good times and a few bad, but his humor never failed. He was a good person, a kind person, and most of all, a loving person to all.

I hadn't seen Bob in a long time, but often thought of him. He battled his illness against the odds, and surprised everyone with his tenacity. I was sorry to learn of his passing on Saturday, and wished he could have spent his last days basking in the sun. The world is an emptier place now that he is gone. We will all miss his kind spirit, his zest for life, his sense of humor, and his smile. Rest in peace.
