Words can’t express the sorrow we feel at Bob’s passing. He was truly one of the good guys. My parents, have been blessed to have Bob as a friend and neighbor. He was always there to help in anyway needed, without being asked and without fanfare. Just a quiet man doing what he could to help. Keeping Pam and the family in our thoughts and sending our love.
