I must say that having a big brother like Bob was a blessing. People always thought we looked alike, and I was so proud of that. He was kind, unique and had many wonderful qualities. He will be missed by all that knew him, especially his wife and children. Love this man with all my heart and look forward to eternity with my Big Brother Bob.

Joanne and family, Becky Karpinski and her daughter Michelle, just viewed the photo collection here,and remembered some good times we had with Bob ourselves! From family reunions of long ago, to him and Michelle trading "junk" right under the noses of the employees at the county dump! We miss you Bob.

Dear Bob White family,
So sad to hear of Bob's passing. Bob and Dave used to polish their vehicle's "rear ends" over the weekend when we lived next to each other. Bob was a great guy and we kept in touch for many years. He will be missed by his friends and family.

Words cant really explain how great a Dad was for us kids. He went to work early, came home, spent tons of time with us, loved growing family garden, loved working on cars, especially with his boys, obviously Loved Hunting, and adored his grandchildren and having a Family. We miss him every day, sometimes I think, "o I gotta tell dad about that later" but then it hits me that I cant, for now - hopefully in the future. Dad always took interest in our hobbies even tho they may not have been his favorite things - just thinking of my VW Bug. When I was 15 I told my dad I wanted to fix up and restore a 60s VW Bug - he sorta shrugged his shoulders and said, "wouldnt you like maybe a mustang or camero instead?" but I loved VWs and he started with $100 shell and restored it 100% with me. Great quality time. Thats what Pops was about! If you knew him, thats what he was about, relationships, friendships, kind, and loving personality! He is already soo missed. I wish his grandkids could have known him longer because he had so many good qualities. I wish we all had him longer! My heart hurts just thinking of what we miss out on by not having him here today. We love you Dad!

Family was so important to Pops!

My thoughts and prayers go out to Bob's family. I had the pleasure of working with Bob for a number of years while working for Human Services. I had a bi-weekly schedule for Interiors. Bob was the ultimate professional. He was a good friend who will be dearly missed. I loved his jokes, his stories but most of all his integrity. Truly a one of a kind man. I'll miss you my friend.

My condolences to the family of Bob White. He was a steadfast and hard worker who always set the bar for the 'young' ones. Always sharing stories from his grand children, to his kids, to stories from the past. They always started out "this one time" and you knew it was going to be a good one! With energy to spare, he was always doing something and never bored. His zest for life will be missed! Rest in peace, Bob. We think of you often and appreciate all you have taught us!

My condolences to Bob's family. Today we had a SRHS Class of '64 "70th" birthday party with many of our classmates and I mentioned Bob and was told of his passing. Needless to say we were shocked; I remember B0b in school and always enjoyed talked with him and having some classes with him too. Again my sincere sympathy to his family.

May I extend my condolences to the family and friends of Bob White. Bob was a year ahead of me at SRHS, and we shared one class that I remember...wood shop. To the chagrin of our instructor, Mr. Larkin, Bob's humor and wealth of stories sometimes interrupted the "work" at hand, but his unique diversions certainly added to my entertainment and to others in the class. May God bless you Bob.
