Janet, Marv & Alice,
Words can not tell you how I feel today. I wish there was someway I could be with all of you. Just know you are in my thoughts and prayers all the time. I will miss Bob and the fun times we all had at the U of M games, bowling and in Alice's back yard working on the pool. We will all meet again someday and laugh at all the good memories. God be with you.

Please accept my deepest sympathy. It has been many years since the Thursday night Christ the King bowling league. Bob was a great competitor who I believe enjoyed every day of his life. His contributions to his famliy, his business, and the community is what I will remember about Bob.

I had the pleasure of bowling with Bob over the past five years, 2 of which were spent on the same team. He was a first class individual that never spoke negatively of anyone. I'm sure as I continue to bowl I'll hear Bob's voice in the back of my head saying "nine is fine". He will be greatly missed.

Over the past 5 years Bob and I have had a bowling date on Monday nights at 9:00. I will not forget all the wonderful conversations we had. To all of Bob's family members, I am sorry for your loss.

I will remember Bob as someone who always had something good to say, even in times of uncertainty. The most recent of conversations that come to mind was at a reunion of sorts for our family, at the Walbridge Park shelterhouse. Bob told me to always smile and take care of your family, the rest will just fall into place. Bob will always be remembered as a good man, that always had something positive to say and a smile to back it up. Bob, you will be missed.
