Uncle Bob,

I will always cherish the moments that we have spent together over the years. Since I was a baby I have always enjoyed sitting down with you and just talking. I am going to miss our breakfasts at McDonalds and sitting with you at the car shows. You are one of the most amazing people I have ever met and I will never forget the values you have instilled in me. Thank you for your service to our country and representing our family so well. I am sorry you did not get to meet my little man Albert but I am sure you are looking down on all of us and smiling. I can not wait to tell him of all you have accomplished in your life. You are our hero and one of the greatest role models a growing boy could ask for. Please continue to watch over our family and thank you again for all of the memories. We will miss you and always love you. Say hello to grandpa and grandma.

Love,

Raymond, Toni-Ann, and Albert

I'm proud to be your niece and sad that I didn't have more time to tell you I LOVE YOU. May you rest in Peace and find Eternal LOVE and HAPPINESS!! I will miss you
Always and Forever,
Your Loving Niece Margo and Husband Paul.

I know that God welcomed Uncle Bob into Heaven with open arms because he was a true inspiration here on earth. This man had such an impact on my husband's life and that of my children. One of the true great heroes that every young man should aspire to become. I know he is in heaven with his sister Bertie (my mother-in-law) watching over all of us. Please keep your ever watchful eyes on our family and help guide us to also one day be at your side.
