There hasn't been a day that I havent thought of you since your passing. I still carry all of the good times we had together wherever I go. Your legacy is filled with laughter, kindness and a passion for fun. There's no better way to honor you than putting the boys in the car and taking a drive with Van Halen on full blast. Please give my love to Great Gramps and Great Gram, Gram and Gramps and Aunt Deb.

There's not a day that goes by that I don't think of you. when I see a tree you planted in my yard, or an arbor you built for my grapes or the blow torch heater you made for me because I'm always cold outside. You are missed so much by your family and all of your many, many, friends. God is blessed with your prescence.
You have the best heart ever. xoxo

Bob was larger than life. He may be gone but the legend lives on in the hearts of his friends and family.I can only smile and laugh at all the times bob was getting us into trouble with Jim "boom boom "Leahy and Eric "scary" Skarin. Life is short . You dont get to choose. May the rest of us try to grab some of the gusto Bob show us every day.
He will be missed but never forgotten
Sincerely
Fraser

Bobby will be missed by this entire world. It sure is a quiet place here without him! I am lucky to have had him in my life. He made an impact on my life and I will never forget him; nor will I forget his pranks and jokes ;) I love him dearly and will miss. I wish the best for Jack and Tanner and send all my love to the entire Lamb Family. Xoxo RIP Uncle Bobby

God created one of the kindest souls... and then decided "He" needed him sooner than anyone of us would have wanted.
This is when we do not question, but just have unconditional faith that there is a bigger plan...

Our entire family adored Bobby and know the loss is so crushing to your whole family... may your bond as a family be stronger because of Bobby's passing... always remembering the great times and most of all, laugh hard in his honor... much love...

It rained yesterday. My little brother died. I always called him Bobby. A kind, friendly and giving man. Bobby could make you laugh just when you needed it most. He would lend a hand when you got in a bind. I loved my little brother, Bobby.
But it rained yesterday.

Bobby was the cousin who tackled me with tickles and always made me do outrageous stunts. Being only 6 or 7,(Bobby was 18 or so) I was definitely putty in his paws. Whether he was getting me to play hilarious devilish pranks on his sisters and friends (of course I didn't realize how terrible they were until I was older), or throwing me in the pool, he was a hoot and a half! We loved spending some of our summers with the family - What great memories. Bob, you will be sorely missed.

Bob was my workmate and my "Bud" & I loved him with all heart! My deepest regret is not telling him how much I appreciated and loved him more often.
A lesson for us all......

We lost a great man. Bob always had a smile on his face and a laugh like no other, never to be forgotten. A legacy of a great family that continues today and tomorrow.

Respectfully,

My earliest childhood memories would not be complete without fond images of sharing common living space with Bob, Jack and Tanner. Doesn't everyone live mere yards away from their uncle and cousins..? Really..? Well then you all missed out...missed out on the laughter, the support, the comfort, the fun, and the love. I'm thankful for every minute of it...and I'm thankful for every minute of Bob. All our love with you on your journey...and our eyes on J & T for ya :)

It was very sad to hear of Bob's passing, but as I reflect on 47 years of knowing him, my heart is made glad in remembering him. His ever present grin, his laugh, his appetite for fun, his zest for life. Bob was genuine, and showed this to me through his many acts of kindness, friendship and compassion. Bob, you leave us too soon and we will miss you.

To my kind hearted, fun loving, crazy funny, and favorite Uncle,
my words can not even begin to express how deeply you are missed, not only by me, but by everyone else who had the privledge of knowing you. Not a day has, or ever will go by where I won't think of you, and although I now have a void in my heart, I am incredibly thankful and lucky to have woke up to a "Big Breakfast" from McDonalds that you would drop off for me on Saturday mornings, earned $20 bucks just for making you a drink at the many family gatherings, watching movie after movie with you in your workshop, but most importantly, I know I am lucky to have spent 18 years with the best Uncle in town! I love you Uncle Bob, more than you will ever know.

It is always sad to lose a fellow classmate. But to lose one who created great memories for so many, it is truly a great loss.

What is a brother? For me, my brother Bob is my champion and my hero. He is The Gatekeeper, The Sage, The Joker, and The Ballast of our family. Bobby is the best expression of human goodness that I have ever known. I love you all to crazy.

In the second grade, Bob came up to me on the playground at Longfellow and handed me a "diamond" he'd found. I still have it!
Even at 7 years old, I got lost in those blue eyes and sweet smile.
My family joins me in expressing our deepest sympathy to the Lamb family for your loss.

It seems so sad to think of such a lovely man to be taken from us so soon in life. He was a beautiful man inside and out and I was grateful to have know him. My sympathies and love go out to his family and all that are missing him! Rest in peace Bob and I know your soul and spirit not only lives on but soars with the angels.

In Lieu of flowers, The Lamb Family has set up a memorial at the Pasadena Humune Society, under the name of Robert S. Lamb. Bobby would have loved this as animals were a dear part of his life. They are having a "match your donation program" so be sure to ask for this and to designate it's for Robert S. Lamb. (626)792-7151

My dearest brother who could always make me laugh with the funniest "words of wisdom", who could fix absolutely anything in the world, who loved his kids more than life itself. I couldn't love anything more and miss you so terribly much.
