You were always available to me, my siblings and my cousins. Always up-beat and positive. A dedicated husband. a sports fan, a hard worker, faithful in your religion, and very easy to give and receive love. I'll miss you forever, and I'll never stop hearing you ask, "Do you know who your Godfather is?"
I know. And I am truly grateful.
Pester Dad for me, you know he loves it.

My Great Uncle Bob,
You always could make me smile. You made all of us smile with your jokes and your witty remarks. It's not easy to say goodbye to anyone, but at least we are all comforted by the fact that you and Great Auntie Jo are together again. We will miss you!! Give her a big hug from all of us!!

Uncle Bob -
I will miss your smile, those blue eyes, and the way you said my name in that deep voice whenever I saw you!
It's sad I will not hear you ask me if I know how old you are again.
I am happy you are with Auntie Joanne now, you told me that was your wish. I remember telling you you had to wait your turn. Well now it's time. Have a safe and wonderful journey to Auntie Joanne and when you hold her again, give her a kiss from me.
Love your niece,
Debbie
