Dear Barb, Kathy and Wynne, Bob was one of my father's dearest friends for more years than I can remember. Was there ever a pair who could be more funny, fish more and work together more at the river? May these fishing buddies argue in heaven about their basserino and pikey minnow!! With all of our love to you dear ones, our old fishermen are together in the big bass boat. Blessings to you.

Bob was a loyal friend who we spent many hours with in Florida playing cards, fishing, eating and at our lake home in Minnesota doing the same. Barb and Bob were always game for any adventure suggested. He will be missed.
