Bob was the best big brother a girl could have. Every moment with Bob was joy and happiness. I love you Bob and will cherish the time we had together. I hope you are fishing in paradise. Love from your sister, you know...the one who you teased and made laugh will your silliness.

So many memories with Uncle Bob, he's barely left us and he's already greatly missed, my family leased land next to Bob's house and loved to come up and see him, we'd come up for a quick weekend trip to visit or some longer atv trips and hunting or fishing trips as well, spent alot of time with him at his kitchen table listening to all his old stories. We all loved Unlce Bob. Hope he is having a good time with old friends right now!
