I was a part of Bob´s family for over 20 years. In those years, he was an advisor, teacher, father, friend & supporter. He welcomed my family into his. Although my marriage didn´t work out, Bob still included me & respected the family. He would come to my home and tutor my kids, his grandchildren, his pride & joy. He planned outings with the kids when school was closed for vacations & the kids looked forward to spending the week with Grandpa. He created so many special memories for the kids & they will miss him dearly. He was a family man , a religious man & a truly special person. My children & those who knew him are all better people because of him. My deepest condolences Ginny.
