Karen and Kim...my heart and prayers go out to you during this time. There are many fond memories mostly to do with snowmobiling and some baseball tournaments. Whether he was picking us up after we were storm stayed in Oak Bluff, to challenging us as young kids "if you can start the snowmobile you can ride it" - and you know we did, to more recent years of going on trail rides where he would always be last rider to make sure we were safe. I treasure the time I got to spend with him and the memories that were made. He will be greatly missed! Much Love, Tracy - Posted by: Tracy Penner (Friend) on: Jul 12, 2017

Dear Kim, Karen, Loretta and family. My deepest condolences to you all. Bob was a great guy who always put family first, and friends and fun second.

You will be sorely missed Bob. RIP buddy. - Posted by: Tom Sheppit (friend) on: Jun 26, 2017

Sad, sad news, just days ago we spoke to him, looking forward to seeing him at the next dance. Always a word or two about baseball. It was a pleasure knowing him & his dancing partner. "I surely must be going now, my strength sinks so fast. What glory! The angels are waiting for me!" St. John 14:2, "In my Father's house are many mansions, if it were not so I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you." Our sincere sympathy to the family & Nicole. Bob you are now safe at home. - Posted by: KENNETH ELLCHUK & OLLIE (DANCE FRIENDS) on: Jun 24, 2017
