Not sure what to say?

I loved going to Bellisle's as a child. I played baseball for the Bellisle team and was awarded many chocolate shakes for the homeruns that I hit. Bob also gave me homerun buttons to keep as souvenirs. Later in life my 2 kids use to walk to Bellisles to enjoy their own ice cream and get entertained by Bob. What a great guy he was, I will never forget him and at age 73 I've forgotten a lot

My Sympathy to Bob's Family. You had two Special parents. Bob and Gale were so good to Me when I Working for them in the early 50's when I was in High School. I remember those Days so often. So nice they will be together again now.

Bob was an incredible person. He will be missed by all. My thoughts go out to his family. He was an icon in Parchment. I had the pleasure of knowing him for 40 years.

To Bob's family, I'd like to offer my sincere condolences on the passing of your father and grandfather. Heaven is a little brighter now--I can just hear him playing "the sinks" up there. I have very fond memories of him at the ice cream fountain in his store--always took my boys there in the 70's and 80's after their doctor visits in Parchment with Dr. Hoekstra. Good memories, good times. Godspeed, Bob.

My thoughts are with the Bellisle. You were fortunate to have such an awesome father.
What a great place to go when you were a kid or an adult. I will never forget the free milkshake when you hit a home run in Parchment Little League, no proof needed just tell Mr. Bellisle and no one took advantage of him. Cheeseburger, fries and a coke from the fountain. I brought my sons 30 years later and it was the same fond memories and same entertainment. Sad to loose such a treasurer.

What a wonderful man being such a part of our childhood. Graduated with Jayne. Sincere to all- will miss his "HI"to everyone.

Our team from 1956

Some of my fondest memories growing up in Parchment were going to Bellisle store and being entertained by Bob himself. I played baseball on the Bellisle's team with my brother and had my Dad as a coach. Every time we hit homeruns Bob would give us a free malted, made it himself. He was a great role model for me and my own kids as they use to go to Bellisle's also. He would call them Burt and Earnie. They loved him just like I did. We will all miss you Bob.

My sympathies to the family! Bob was such a wonderful family man and businessman. So enjoyed going to his lil diner in Parchment. My husband and I spent many lunches there and have fond memories of the good food and ice cream sundaes. He will be extrememly missed. Glad he is atleast now with his wife.

Our love & Prayers are with the Family for their loss. He was a great person. He will be missed.
