We were very sorry to hear of Bob's illness and death. He passed away on what would have been my father's 100th birthday. We will always remember Bob with fondness.
May God give you His peace and comfort.
Love, Debbie & Vic Corkins

I was sad to see the paper with the notice of Mr. Shimmin's passing. I only met him in his later years. He was very sweet and I enjoyed the few times I spent with him. I only wish I could have known him longer. He had a very sweet look in his eyes. I offer my deepest sympathy to all his family at this very sad time. It is never easy to loose the one we love! My love to the Family of Bob Shimmin.

I met Bob Shimmin when I was hired as a Secretary at L.A. Diesel back in the early 90's. I'll never forget how nice of a man Bob was & so patient with me. Invoices had to be typed up so fast because the customers would be waiting at the counter so I made a few errors. After correcting my errors I would always say "Sorry Bob" with a sad look on my face & he would point at me and say "Oooh,you!" with a kind smile on his face...holding that invoice. Till this day I always look back & think about...

Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new.
I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.
All I have are memories and a picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part.
God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart.
** Now there will be a great dancer leading the Angels away!***
Rest in Peace Bob
You will always be remembered...
