You will be dearly missed. Me and my wife loved talking to Bob. All of my children loved him like a grandfather. We talked even when we were a hundred miles away. I'll miss those talk's. Our prayers are with all of your family. One of the great ones has gone home to his wife. See ya on the other side buddy. Love Tom, Terijo and family
As a very small girl I would say about the age of three my uncle gave me a necklace. He gave it to me just before he was leaving to go off to basic training for the Army. He told me to take very good care of it and I promised him that I would. I recall asking my mother to put it on a high shelf in a coat closet. After several months one day I asked her if she would get it for me so that I can look at it again. When she went to get the necklace it was gone. I was so sad because I had promised my uncle that I would take very good care of it and here I had lost it. As an adult I shared the story with him and how I had carried guilt for most of the years because I had lost this necklace that he had given to me. A few years later I had gone home for a visit. While at the airport he was so anxious to give me a gift. When I opened it I saw that it was another necklace. He told me that there was no reason to feel guilty. I still have that necklace now and it is very precious to me. As an adult I know I will never lose it because I know the value of that necklace. My Uncle Bob and I had a very close relationship I will miss him and I love him dearly for all the days of my life. Until we meet again Uncle Bob just know and I loved you.
