Bobby, such a giving person. Over the years working in the greenhouse industry, he was a rock, helping, kind, and all-around good person. A loss to all. God bless.

Bob is the last of my four brothers to pass on to his heavenly home. I reflect on our childhood memories. Remembering swimming and fishing in the pond. The hay elevator you placed by the pond so we could jump off. Endless days of mowing grass. Climbing the cherry trees with tin peanut butter pails belted to our waist picking the cherries for moms pies. The days Mom loaded us all up and we swam in Clear Lake or Coldwater Lake before we had the pond. Ice skating down the middle of the road the year we had a bad ice storm. Building the Igloo and Matilda the goat thought it was her new home. Running down that driveway to catch the school bus. Watching the "Hey Hey We're the Monkeys" on Saturday afternoon. Playing hockey on the pond. Sledding down the front yard in the winter on an over turned Citco gas sign. Our pony, horse, pigs and jersey milking cows. The cute new born calves you carried in from the back pasture. The baby fox you brought home. Abandoned kittens you found in the lane. Riding our Sting Ray banana seat bikes down the driveway after it rained, thru the mud puddles. The year the tornado took out our sand box pine tree. The car accident you had at the end of the road when you tried to sneak home one night with your lights off. Missed but not forgotten. Love you. Rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss. Bob and I had a conversation earlier this year before you came ill. He mentioned he had hopes to keep on driving his truck until his mid seventies. He was so optimistic for the future. R.I.P. Bob. I will miss talking with you.

Love you Uncle Bob! You may be the uncle of my sister from another mister, but I enjoyed what time we were able to spend together. Don't worry! We will take care of each other. Seek out my Brandon and help him keep the Semi's moving until we get to join you all someday.
