Uncle Bob will be sadly missed by nieces and nephews: Robin, Heather, Donald, Gregory, Michael, Chad, Ryan, Scott, Alison and Geoff.

  • I have 2 paintings I bought for my mother in the late 70's-early 80's in northwest Ontario (Kenora area) painted by a Robert Arabsky. Was wondering if this is who painted them. - Posted by: Steve miller (Curious) on: Oct 28, 2019
