Uncle Bob has left the building! He´s not my uncle, he was my brother-in-law, but I´m saying this because it would make him laugh as some of my fond memories of him are his laughing and his passion for music. He was born with a natural vocal talent, and entertained our family with it throughout the years. Our favorites were "born to be wild, "and amazing grace, which he sang at my mother`s funeral. It was beautiful. I am so happy that my sister, Sandy, found the love of her life in Bob. They created a beautiful family together and my hope is that they are again together and will live in eternal peace forever. We will miss you, Bob.
