Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this difficult time. Uncle Bob was a precious soul and welcomed me into the family from the first moment we meet. He will be greatly missed. Praying !

Rest In Peace My Friend

I was fortunate enough to grow up around the corner from Uncle Bob. His son , robin , was my best friend, we were inseparable, and Uncle Bob was my second father, complete with spanking priveleges. Uncle Bob taught me how to ride a bike. He was a kind and good person. This world has lost one of its very best, and i am very sad. God Bless Uncle Bob, and the entire Leake family, Robin, Vicky, Fields, and Becky. Jack Jurgens
