We were so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. We were at Twin Oaks recently and someone mentioned that he had passed.
We have known Bob for almost 30 years from the "Back Bar" at Twin Oaks. He used to meet his friend, Everette, there on Friday nights.
Bob was a wonderful person and such an inspiration.
I remember, Debbie, when you went to Australia - then hearing about the wonderful man that you met, and your marriage. We always loved hearing about Bob's trips to Australia. We named him "Australia Bob" to distinguish him from the other Bob's at the bar. He was so proud when his grandson was born, and we loved hearing his little stories of his adventures with Daniel. Bob will certainly be missed, but he will never be forgotten.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time.
Rest in peace, Bob. We all love you.

Dear Debbie, Peter & Daniel,
We will always remember "Grandpa". He was very special to both of us with his knowledge, wisdom and good sense of humor.
We feel privileged that we were able to enjoy the company of "Grandpa" for some 25 years.
We will celebrate life with you on Sept. 1 at 822 Main St. in East Greenwich and we will continue on to "Grandpa" favorite social gathering place afterwards
With best wishes
Debbie and Henri
