Uncle Bob McKittrick always wanted nothing but to make people happy. He never had hate for anyone. He tired to be there for everyone more then for himself. He has brought many smiles and laughter into people's lifes weather they were family/friends and even strangers he did not know. His life memories will always be talked about thought about and never forgotten. Robert McKittrick was a big inspiration to many of us. He taught us that you can become anyone you wanted to be do anything that you set your heart to do. I will never forget the good times we had. I learned a lot from him and his brother my grandfather Glenn McKittrick. I loved going to work with them I loved listing to them play their guitars and sing and praise God. They were both firm believers willing to help anyone. You will always and forever be missed and loved very much. You are now with your family upstairs peacefully. Life has not ended for you. Your life has just began. R.I.P Uncle Robert (Bob) McKittrick
