Not sure what to say?

I was friends with his son Pete, who got me a job working for his dad in a call center, one of Bob's many businesses.We just got NHL in SLC. , made me think of him, Pete and Renee. Bless you all. Sean Brown.

I worked with and for Bob in Jacksonville, Fl. with the Jacksonville Rockets. I was one of the game officials. Certainly enjoyed working with Bob and very sorry to learn of his passing.

Jan 22: I tried to reach Bob this morning on his cell Unable to get through, I thought, not good and worked my way here. In Atlanta since ‘84, I am so thankful I made a point to visit with Bob and Eileen some 5+/- years ago. I loved Bob as a brother. In ‘75 he took me in as a friend after knowing me less than a week - helped me get a car to get around, gave me work to make a few dollars while I search for steady work. Bob was an I believe still is a “great” guy who I will miss for a long,...

Bob was my mentor, my best friend, my son's Godfather, and so much more. The man with the giant heart and crystal, honesty. Bird dog, love you forever!

My sincerest condolences to Pierre and your family. My thoughts are with all of you at this difficult time.

Bob was a caring, kind and loving man who enriched everyone who knew him. To say that he had a great sense of humour is an understatement. I am grateful and blessed to have shared in the Sabourin journey. Prayers of comfort and peace for Eileen, Pierre, Micheline, Renee and Nichole.


I met Bob in 1983 at his office down town. His daughter Mich introduced me to him. This man helped so many people out from the kindness of his heart. He truley liked helping people. I respect this man very highly and his family for their loving nature from their hearts. If it wasn't for them I would have never met my wife of 34 years. Thank you Bob for all you done for me. Please say hello to Patricia for me who passed on July 1 2020.
