Bob, you were always good to people and loved coaching baseball. You let anybody and everybody get in the game no matter if they could play or not. You never forgot my birthday and sometimes were there when no-one else was. Glad I have some pictures of us together so I can look back at some of our good times. Going to miss you my friend R.I.P Bob

Childhood fond memories of my brother Bob, when we were young Bob liked bugs, spiders, bees, all bugs, he like to watch and catch them. Bob also loved dinosaurs, he had a plastic play set, he knew all their names and which ones were meat eaters and which ate plants.I remember playing with them together.
As we grew older, Bob like to play ball, baseball, curb ball, running bases, catch, he would make games up like roofball, he'd toss a ball on the house roof and catch it as it rolled off, he would throw it up again an again, until one of my parents would tell him to knock it off. I was lucky enough to be included by my older brother Bob and his friends to play ball, Bob was always better then me, he had a good arm. One summer Bob broke his thumb, playing catch with a neighbor to see who could throw the hardest.
My Dad use to take me Bob and John fishing on the banks of the Salt River, I don't remember catching much, but it was fun to be together. Bob never bullied me much as some brother do, he let me hang around with him and his friends. As I became a teen I had a lot of firsts with Bob, he introduced me to, my first concert, first smoke, maybe first beer, first time I listened to Leon Russel and several other Rock bands. We were brothers and good friends. I was the mechanical brother that worked on his car. Bob was the older brother that let me hang out and showed me how to have a good time. Bob was a good older brother, he will be missed by his entire family.
As I continue my life, I will hold onto the fond memories of my brother Bob.

On Jan 20,1950, Bob was sent by God to begin his Human Experience on earth. Bob arrived, scared and crying. His family was happy and joyful. On May 30, 2013 God ended the human experience and he now begins his eternal spiritual life. Bob's family is now crying and scared but Bob is smiling and happy as he is back home in our Saviors Kingdom. I'm sure he and his dad have already set up a few fishing trips. Save me a spot on the boat my friend.

Perhaps they are not the stars, but rather openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy. ~Author Unknown
