I was so sorry to hear of my cousin, Bobby's passing. I have such fond memories of growing up with family gatherings at "the cottage" at Comet Lake. Bobby always teased my sister Kay and I and I really treasure the times we all spent together having fun at the lake. I remember how close he and Marianne were and wished I had a brother like Bob. My mother told me many stories about her nephew,Bobby. Peace and prayers for the family.
