I am so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I met him a few years ago buying outdoor equipment and had an instant connection because of love of rural Pennsylvania. We'd talk for hours about the Lumber Museum and other outdoor events. I'll miss the special notes he'd write on my receipts. Rest In Peace Bob. God bless your family.

We will never forget this wonderful man, he always made us smile and loved being on the farm more than anyone we have ever known. He truly loved his family and was a wonder family man.
Bob was kind, thoughtful and always willing to help anywhere it was needed. We did not realize he was so ill because he spoke of moving to the country and enjoying life at the farm during his last visit.... there was so much we would of loved to say to this man, thank you for being our friend and being there for us!
We will miss Bob, we loved him dearly!
Love Lynette and Tim Wales

I'm so sorry to hear of Bobby's passing.
We Sullivans grew up on Hillcrest with the Colaneris.
And my brother Michael often stopped into the store to say hello. Bobby came to my Michael's wake last year and we appreciated his memories so much then.
Please have peace in your hearts, Bobby was a very sweet and kind man.
