Bob worked with my dad on the railroad for over 27 years before my dad moved to Florida. His nick name for my dad was Bozie or he would call him Al. during their time working on the railroad they often worked other jobs together like used auto sales. Running to auto action. Bob was a family friend even after my dad's passing. Bob was a very nice man. Bob was always very cheerful man. He loved talking railroad or cars. Bob will be missed. My heart goes out to the family.

I miss you dearly buddy. I miss our visits and working on the trucks. I know Bulldog misses you bringing her crackers also. Until we meet again Bob, I am proud to call you my friend and brother.

So very sorry to Bobs family. I met him at the bank, where I worked & when he learned I was from Black Oak, we soon had a friendship! We moved from Valpo to Griffith & he came & visited us! So happy that we became friends & he missed Sharon terribly, as you know. What a great guy, love & prayers, Ed & Landa

Rest peacefully, my privilege to have known you.
