Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the entire Warner family. We are so sorry for your loss. I am a friend of his sisters Veronica and Pat from his years in Leslie, but I remember Bob very well and what a fun loving person he was then too. No one ever really dies who is remembered so keep him close in your memories and cherish the good times you've had together. May God draw near to you all and comfort you.

Colleen, so sorry to hear about Bob. You are in my thoughts & prayers.
