Barb, Dickie, Marcia, Linda and families, we were saddened to here of Uncle Bob's passing. Buy are comforted knowing he is back with Aunt Mary and no longer held back with an aging worn out body.

I still remember coming over and getting haircuts, maybe due to the fact that he always managed to clip a little skin off my ear!☺ We hope you all find comfort in Uncle Bob's new journey.

Keep smiling, Debbie and Dennis
