Dearest family & friends of Bob,
I had the pleasure of working with Bob at the bus garage in West Seneca. He was always full of interesting stories and a warm hello to go with his big smile.

Our thoughts are with you and hope that your memories will be your comfort.

Lance--Our sympathies to you & your family. I worked with Bob at the Peace Bridge for years and he was always anxious to share info about your Customs career--he was so proud of you! After I moved on and he retired, how surprised I was to see him appear as driver for our Amish friends, delivering the plants they bought from us!! He took such pleasure in helping others and we will truly miss his visits. We are sorry for your loss--Jan and Peter Henry & greenhouse crew
