On behalf of The Moley family originally from Red Lion, we would like to extend our deepest sympathy to Uncle Bob's family.
I remember when Bob and my Mother's sister, Donna were married many years ago along with their daughter Kathy and her extended family.
We would also extend our deepest sympathy to all Bob's family both near and far.
Bob was a hard worker and spent many years as a mason working with Slugger Blouse and his crew.
Please keep those memories of Bob closest to your heart because it will be those memories I have of Bob and his family and the memories will make it somewhat easier to cope with his passing.
Rest in peace Uncle Bob, your memories will last forever!

Bob was one of the finest men I ever knew. Bob was a man my father loved as family as we all did. I never knew a better man and will never forget him. We were all blessed to know him. Kathy, Mark and all the family are in my thoughts and prayers.
