I remember Uncle Bob was a generous man. He lived with us a while when I was a child, and he helped to build an addition to our house. He was a skilled bricklayer. My brothers and I remember Bob giving us some boxing gloves for Christmas one year. He knew that brothers fight sometimes. I am sorry that I didn't spend more time with him. I enjoyed his smile, and I will miss him. Jay Holley
