We will always remember you Bob - you were a treasure to us. It was always a treat to visit with you and family. Laughs and a lot of kidding! Stranded at your house in a Christmas storm, making sausages in our home where you thought I was just not capable of following your simple instructions, lots of precious memories. Years of travelling with Dad (Gordon) to Acorn Acres to see the Munroes. Something we just had to do. We loved you Bob. Family was so important to you. Thanks for that lesson, we will try to apply it. - Posted by: Bob & Brenda Hamilton (Family) on: Jun 09, 2009
