Miss you Uncle Bob. Can still see you with Schnaaps, barking at my mother. You were the great gentleman of Vista Drive.

Henry, I was sorry to hear of your Dad's passing but, know that you and your family have many wonderful memories to cherish. The Vegas trips will undoubtedly stand out as he had the midas touch. My family and I send our condolences to your entire family and wish Debbie, your girls peace in the coming year. Keith Pochter

When we look back on what enabled Uncle Bob to live 96 memorable and inspiring years, we can answer without hesitation:

Heart!!!

He had the biggest heart of any person we have ever known. Where other men scolded or ignored young neighbor boys, he nurtured and taught us and exuded enthusiasm and fun. We always, always looked up to him.

My father always said the Uncle Bob represented everything that is good about life. I think that's because he truly loved us all with that big heart, a heart that lives on in all those he touched.

Thank you, Uncle Bob, for always bringing out our best and the best in life. Thank you for giving us your heart.

I have nothing but the fondest memories of Bob, our next door neighbor on Vista Drive. He always had a smile and a warm expression in his demeanor. His family is lucky to have had him near and dear for 96 years.

Bob enjoyed life to the very end, he's a model for us all. Susan and Richard Kirshner
