Dad, I will always miss and love you forever. I wish I had said it more than I did. The kids will always remember you as their Grandfather(papa). Marin hardly knew you and she talks as if she had for many years. Ryan can't shut up about you. You played a big part in his life and hope he doesn't forget either.
We love you
Pat,Jennifer,Ryan and Marin

To our dear friends Cindy and Brad - You could tell how much Bob enjoyed his conversations with Ryan, sharing his woodworking skills with Kevin and laughing at Michelle’s observations on life in general on his visits to your house. We will miss his hearty “hellos across the patios” when he came for these visits. Our prayers are with you at this very difficult time
