"I metjBob through his wife Vera, over 20 years ago, we worked together. He was always a kindand loving friend. He never minded sharing his moonshine. He could get some really great moonshine, back in the day. All kidding aside, It was always a blast seeing you. I will definitely miss him sitting in his chair, keeping everyone laughing and cutting up. Rest in Paradise Bob, we will all see you there again one day."

"Thirty years ago I met Bob on the very first day I moved here. It was not my choice to be here so I wasn?t happy but Bob and Vera decided they were going to be my friends and help me and have ever since. I am very grateful to have known Bob I loved him and share a lot of great memories with him. Me and my family will miss him. "
