Our thoughts are with all of Bob's family. We remember Bob as being a very caring and likeable person. I Guy remember when I broke my leg in football and the Cress family took me in their home and cared for me for a couple of months. That shows the kind of people Bob and his family were. Know he will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
