Not sure what to say?

Hearing of Bob's passing broke my heart. He was just one in a million, so talented, funny, generous and kind. He leaves so many wonderful memories of a wonderful person. My sincerest condolences to his beloved son Taylor and his loving family.

Dear Bobby,

You will be greatly missed... You have been a dear friend of almost 20 years. Your spirit will live on as we reflect on all of our good times from South Bach to the Bay Area. Both you and Char are like members of our family. And, Char, Kyle and I will continue to make new memories, too, of course they wont be the same without your flair and humor. But, I'm sure you'll be smiling and laughing from up above. Best, Gil


I am sorry for your loss. It is always hard to lose a loved one in death. Our heavenly Father is very aware and understands the pain you feel. He will give you comfort. (Psalms 86:6,7) Your family has my deepest sympathy.

Oh I am sorry to hear this news. I always enjoyed his company. Great guy.

The Marina never was the same when you two left. Such good people and so much fun. RIP my brother, you will be missed.
Love you Char

I'll never forget the first day I met Bobby at the little wine bar in the marina where I bartended during college. He seemed like a movie star, handsome, larger than life, a giant smile and easy to laugh. He made me feel like family immediately ... He is a big part of those happy, golden-days memories at the wine merchant. The world is a little less bright without him. Sending all my love to Char and the rest of the Kiel family.

Taylor

I was very sorry to hear of your father's passing. Many years ago I'd hired him to join us at Victoria Station. He was a great guy and a great help.

As a former Army Caribou pilot in Vietnam in 1966, I'd also like to thank your for your service.
