I am saddened to know of Bob's passing. Many years ago, I had the privilege of knowing both Bob and Carol while working at Manor Care. Bob was the amazing department head of Maintenance. Nothing was too difficult or challenging for Bob. There were so many urgent phone calls from me to Bob because of something that needed to be fixed for clinical care. Bob was kind, understanding, and gentle with both staff and patients.
To Bob...thank you for all you did. I know bands of angels accompanied you to your heavenly home. To Carol...my heart breaks for you. May your memories be a blessing and comfort.

My heart is breaking for my Bestie, family and friends. Bib was such a giving man and always made sure everyone was ok. His heart was real. He had so much love in his heart for everyone. My heart breaks that my Bestie Chrissy, her children, husband, mother, and brother, along with so much family and friends, we lost this amazing man. He was the rock of the family. My heart knows that his memory will carry this family. I was so blessed to get to know him. He will be missed. My heart is full of love for everyone he left behind. Fly "Big Bob" Fly....
