I hadn't seen my cousin in many years, but remember him fondly at family events. My mother was Arline Fisher who was Bob's first cousin. My condolences to family and friends.

We will remember Bob and Mary's kindness, always open to family, friends and neighbors. We remember the Christmas get together's where all ages were welcome. We will miss seeing Bob and Mary on our neighborhood walks and their friendly hello's. We admired their beautiful garden and hope someone keeps it looking as they had. Our condolences to the family. May God bless and comfort them.
