My most favorite memory of uncle bob, is one I have from when I was a child.
We lived in Santa Rosa on weekends we would go into town to grocery shop, and visit everyone at great grandma's house.
Bobby would give everyone hand shakes and hugs, and take about his new blue ventures tapes. Then later in the evening he would invite me to go throw the trash with him. I never minded because we would take a little walk sometime's around the block, sometimes we would sit in the wall behind the house and roll pebbles down the alley. But my favorite was when we would be on our way back he would say "let's race." Sometimes I would win , sometimes he would win. The times he would win he would give you a high five and say it's ok you lost it's because your "feo." Then he would laugh give you a seven up, and sit on the porch with you.

That's my favorite memory of him. He was a good hearted person.
