We are so very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Although my sister and he divorced, Bob still gifted me with a full set of beautiful Noritake China as a wedding gift when I married at 17. He was always laughing and sharing a joke and gave the best hugs . Rest in peace, Bob. Prayers for the family and may his memory be a blessing.
