Not sure what to say?

Today Bob's memory came to me about the time we worked together at Western Auto in Carmichael as teenagers. He was so much fun to be around and he offered to teach me waterskiing. I am so sorry to learn that he has past but so pleased to hear of his wonderful family.

Bob was the best. I first met him when I was 15, before he met his second wife. He was my first crush, in every sense of the word.

Thanks for the memories. You will be sorely missed by many. Thanks for all my siblings - Bob Jr., Peggy, David, Sabrina - as well as the grandchildren, Joshua, Daniel, Taylor and Madison. Your legacy continues.

Dad, thank you for your unconditional love, your compassion, your sense of humor, all the laughter, thanks for making life so much fun, we had some great times!

I will miss my dear friend of 73 years. There are so many wonderful memories that the "Carmichael Four" shared with this wonderful man.

Sorry to read this. i grew up with Bobby, both went to Carmichael Grammar School.

My condolences to the Griswold Family. I had the opportunity to meet Bob in his twilight years. He carved out a piece of heaven on earth with his house and garden in the country.


Dear Cindy, we are so sorry for your loss.

Dad loved life, loved others, and couldn't stand the losses from dementia. He'll always be happy, because he always was. We will miss him so very much along the way. Carry on, Grizzy, you are my hero.
