For over 30 years Bob offered me his unconditional friendship.
Bob was the bravest man I have ever known. He didn’t complain about his pain, I never saw a pity party.
I thank God for the blessing of having him in my life.

Bob was a remarkable man who bore his crippling illness with courage and humor. He fought the good fight. While we are saddened by his loss, we are inspired by his brave battle. He will be missed by the many who could call him a friend. God bless him.

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.
Bob always had a smile on his face I enjoyed working with him.
When the sun sets on a perfect day, a day that has been one in a million, only a foolish person regrets it's ending.
The day was here and now it's gone and the wise person remembers the joy of that day, not the sadness of its passing.
Robert lived his day with joy, with love and with dignity and...

To the other drivers, Bob was like a little brother. Never one to complain about his illness, always first with the "one liners!" None of us could stay in a bad mood with Bob around. It was one of the saddest times when he retired. We, his friends would make sure his transfers were punched his bus was running and pretriped. We loved him dearly, though would be too embarrassed to say it out loud.
the way I have it figured GOD needed to hear some new material so as to keep laughing at...
