Any time spent with Bob was a good time. He was such a wonderful man. I think I will probably remember him most at Helen and Orvil's house, sitting and visiting with all the family, and seeing him pet and enjoy his sweet dog. Bob you will be missed. Enjoy your reunion with those who have passed before and are there to greet you. Thank you for your love and kindness.

The kind of Uncle every kid should have.
The kind of Man EVERYONE should be lucky enough to know personally.
I'll never forget many moments talking with Uncle Bob, but the last time we were up there he expressed interest in land surveying, and said it always fascinated him. And I got the chance to talk his ear of a bit about it.
What an absolute honor. I will never forget it.
Inspires me to become a better surveyor. :)

What a great guy. He taught me how to trap shoot. I'll never forget that. He was funny, smart, kind and he will be remembered for these and countless other qualities. I'm sure you're having a great reunion with those that have gone before you. Rest well "Bobby"

Bob was a kind, funny, caring, and unfailingly helpful man who I was proud to call family. I wish I had a nickel for every time over the last 30+ years that Dave or I said, "Let's ask Bob. He'll know." Robert, you will be missed.
