It was a pleasure to know Bob. He was a fun guy especially on his bus trips and was always kidding with the bingo ladies. He knew how to make me laugh even when I was losing! I will miss his smile at the Senior Clubs. Bob would always ask how my hubby was doing when he didn't come to a club meeting. I hope heaven has a bingo hall for you Bob......Our thoughts and prayers for you Gert and your family.

Loving daughter Diane and family.
