I will miss my Father-in-law for many reasons. The one that comes to mind first is our annual bet on what the Philadelphia Eagles record will be at the end of the season. Bob would always under estimate them and I would always take the over, many a case of beer came my way at the end of the season. Not sure my Father-in-law had a mean bone in his body, I will miss his laugh and I miss him.

Love ya, Brian

I remember watching scary movies together, it was our special time together. He would play bingo with all the kids in the neighborhood on our porch, everyone knew him! He will be missed very much by his family. We love you Dad, glad you are finally at peace now. Jen, Brian and A.J.
