I had the great honour of caring for Bob. He was a wonderful person with a soul to match. Sending loving prayers and thoughts to his many friends.

Bob was known to me as "Uncle Bob" - he was at nearly every holiday and family event and we count him as one of our own. Bob's wild accent, tall stature, and odd ball humor made him beloved and unforgettable. I literally cannot get his voice out of my head.
