Hey will be greatly missed by this community and us as well. Such a sad loss. Prayers for him and his family.
Having known Bob for many many years and being his neighbor down the road, This is a big loss to the community. He was always willing to help and was a great person. I always enjoyed visiting with him at TSC and even if I didn’t need help with anything, he was always willing to chat to catch up on what was going on in our neighborhood on 41. He will be missed…
My memoirs of Bobby go way. This past week he has crossed my mind many times. To young for sure. To his family remember the good times and keep him close to heart.
