We all miss you Bob. I know I wasn't the easiest kid to deal with, but as I grew up I realized how great of a man you really were. We will all look after mom and Becky for you. I am glad that you were part of all of our lives, I'm glad that the boys got to know you for a short time and we will never let them forget you. I am a better man for having had you in my life. You will always be missed.
