Here is to one of the best man and dad I knew. I remember so many memories over my 34 years to toad n the holes, the boy scout trips, the Christmas Eve parties, the skate ramp, forts to remote control cars. Most importantly, I will always remember the great person Bob was to me. To a great man!

Bob was like a second father to me growing up. He was always there to help Brad and I on our next adventure. Baseball, Football, Cub Scouts, Camping, Fishing, RC Cars, you name it. We would just pile in the Astrovan and go have some fun. What an awesome dad and man! The world truly lost one of the great ones on Friday! We all know he is in a better place right now, looking down to give support to Su, Vicki, Brad and the whole Duggan family. Please know the Bratton's are here for you in your time of need.
