A most unusual man and I feel lucky to have known him. He was warm, outgoing and friendly man to all with a particularly times of friendship when we were together with my sister and brother in law, Jean and Gale Fuller. A man so loved by all. They don't come along often.

I'll remember Bemo-Bob forever. Always looked forward to him delivering chips at the Whitelake Eagles. As bartender I always enjoyed his stories. Everyone knew him and he knew everyone there.You were lucky to have him in your life.

What a guy. What a friend! He was just super to my sister Jean and bro. in Law, Gale Fuller. For a short period of time he kind of took me under his wing when I needed it. I have only the fondest of memories of this fun loving, friendly and out going guy that I don't think he had any enemies. Once you met him, you didn't forget. My warmest regards to his family and sincere condolences. He was one terrific guy and we will all miss him. RIP BeeMo!

I remember Bemo-Bob very well from my bartender days when he would deliver Bemo potato chips! He sure was a special guy! Everyone that knew him liked him! I am so glad his family had him in their lives for so many years.

So very sorry for his family's loss. I live in Grand Rapids now, but was born and raised in Muskegon. Bob White was my Dad's cousin, and I remember him well.Condolences from Carolynne Zeckzer Dykhuis

Sadly, I'll miss Friday's memorial. What a wonderful guy. As a honorable member of the "Leather Helmets" and the historian for Big Red football, I heard the stories and read the newspaper accounts. (For the most part, they meshed. ;) Old Jimmy Henderson and the Chronicle staff certainly had a way with words). The Leather Helmet guys were always happy to share exploits that didn't make the press.

Bob used to take great joy in honking and waving as me as I worked on my yard as he traveled up and down Lakeshore. Always a blast to be around him. My condolences to his family and friends. What a great life!

An incredible man. I am so sorry. Bernie, Kimmie entire family you are in my thoughts and prayers.

BeMo Bob has a special place in ALL the hearts of ALL the kids who grew up in the North Wood Road neighborhood. What a special guy, what a character! He knew all our names, knew where we lived and even gave some of us nicknames. Mine was "Lil' Ame" even though I was far from little! Even in my adult years, I was always greeted with a hug and called "Lil' Ame"! You will always have a special place in my heart and memories, BeMo Bob! Thank you, White/Thielbar families for sharing him with us! Love and sympathy...
