Robert Mason McLaughlin

Uncle B, used to send me these crazy monkey emails all the time,some with jokes others just checking up on me to see how things were. I miss those emails,but will never forget them. He was one of a kind . I miss him and still think of him often.

One summer we were all at the lake house and Ginger and I slept in the big bedroom. The next morning Bobby complained that Ginger's snoring kept him awake. Greg confirmed;"big time". We had such good times! God broke the mold when he made Bobby. His family is blessed for having had Bobby in their lives. We have so many good memories of our times together. We miss Bobby so very much.

Bob sold me the first Shotgun I ever bought for myself. I wanted one thing and he talked me into getting something different. After using that shotgun for 25 years I am very glad that he did.
I also remember getting him in VERY Big Trouble with my Mom. You know the story that had to do with a MOTORCYCLE. We were both in big Trouble over that. Bob never made me feel like he wished he never helped me and I will always remember that. He will be dearly missed and loved.

For me to try to say any one thing in particular about uncle B that stands out isn't easy, and if I did he would probably have corrected my grammer. I will always hold a special place in my heart for him. I would also like to thank him for looking after my dad, but I guess I'll will have to wait a while for that opportunity. I will miss, but never forget him.

Marty, you and your family are in my thoughts, and Bobby in my daily Masses and prayers. I will cherish the happy moments of our last gathering in July of last year. Bobby's permanent smile, hiding mischief, happiness sincerity and love, will be a lasting impression for everyone. May the prayers of all who loved Bobby lift you up and grant you peace.

I love you all very much and I will miss Uncle Bob terribly.

Scott & Tina, we are saddened to hear of your tremendous loss. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

The McLaughlin family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Marty, I am truly sorry for your sudden and tragic loss. May your memories of the good times that you and your family had sustain and comfort you now and always.
