Pop was not only a wonderful man he was such an amazing grandpa. I am the luckiest grand daughter in the world to have someone like him as a grandpa.Words can not describe how much i miss him! All the fun times we had together from fishing to going to the thrift store to even grocery shopping i would never leave that mans side not even for a second. Its hard for me to believe you are still gone pop. 5 days after you left this earth your great grandson couldn't want any longer and made his entrance in the world on January 27! oh how i wish you and nan could have gotten the chance to met him. Hes the most handsome little boy in the world. I hope i raise him to be at least half the man you were. The last weeks of your life i will cherish the time i spent with you forever! Even being 24 years old i was still by your side 24/7 till i had to come back home. I wish i could have been there with you through the end but pregnancy had its toll on me. Thank you for being my very first best friend and showing me what unconditional love is. I hope i made you proud during my 24 years on this earth. I hope i continue to make you proud till i see you again. i know you and nan are in heaven finally reunited and can be happy and pain free. Like josh said you put up one hell of a fight and i couldnt be anymore proud to have know such an amazing man and fighter. I miss you like crazy i cant handle it at times.Until we meet again i will talk to you and nan everyday. Save a spot up there for me! Ill bring the ice cream and tri tip. I miss you so much and love you!!!!
A grandpa is your best friend your hero! I love you always and forever that will never change. I miss you like no one can ever imagine

Pop (Bob) was a very special person to alot of people. He was the complete opposite of selfish. He did so much for so many. He will truly be missed by many. I was blessed to call him Pop and to have him as a grandfather. So many great memories we created together. So many early morning fishing trips we went on. I remember as a young boy going down to his coffee shop (Tee's I believe it was called) and he would buy me a ice cream cone. We sat around the table with his buddies talking about how old they are and that one day I will be this old too... I remember our early morning fishing trips him waking up at 3am and me still awake because of the excitement I could not sleep. Driving up into the mountains to spicer or mesquite and catching trout. Then coming home and making me clean the fish. Many many more fishing adventures we went on. I remember taking nanny to the second hand stores and spending hours following them around. She would touch everything in that store before we would leave. Pop and Nan will truly be missed but never forgotten. They passed on alot of great traits and wisdom over the years. I hope I can provide and become half the man that he was. One of the best things I will never forget about my grandfather is his love for his wife. They are the definition of soul mates and true love. One of our last conversations we had before he passed he told me how proud he was of me and how I have a great woman and a great daughter. I am proud that I made him proud. It was a heart warming feeling hearing him say that. He fought for many years and put up a hell of a fight against his cancer. Now his fight is over and he is reunited with his love. Til we meet again Pop.....
