We are blessed to have known Bob and the family as neighbors and friends. Over the years we became family. Bob kept everyone entertained with his keen sense of humor and quick wit at holiday gatherings and summer picnics. He always greeted us with his infectious smile and never a hair out of place. A finer gentleman you will never meet. It was an honor to have Bob in our lives and he will continue to hold a special place in our hearts. Gary, Scott and Family thanks for sharing. The Burchells
