My condolences to his family. Bob was a great man, he was always the go to guy when you wanted to solve a crime. Bob would always look at a case file and almost instantly solve the case. What a Detective he was. He wouldn´t rest until justice was served. That was just Bob. May he rest in peace in heaven.
