Bob was a great neighbour and friend. He was always willing to help.
Twenty years ago he came over and worked all day helping me build a deck in the backyard. He loved to visit from the front porch with passersby or sit out there and read his novels. Last weekend I was up to visit him at the hospital, he was so concerned about the health of one of grandchildren. I will never forget that visit. God bless you Mary and family as you grieve, mourn and celebrate his life and love.
We are praying for you. We will miss Bob!
