Bob and I were very close friends for many years, but somehow
the table turned and out friendship came to an abrupt end.
I´ll never know what really happened but have a pretty good idea.
However, I choose only to remember the good days and time.
May you Rest In Peace Bubba !

Bob, you were a big man with an even bigger heart - a teddy bear under the guise of a grizzly. You were a good man and a good friend, and you will be missed.

I loved knowing Bob. He was my shoulder when I needed to cry. He was my ears when I needed to talk. He was my heart when I needed to feel warmness. I will miss him very much.

There are many memories I will cherish from our time together my friend, from the cook outs on your deck in the back yard to cruising around the Bahamas. It did not matter where we were at or what we were doing as long as there were a group of us doing it together and enjoying our selves. You were a big part of all of our lives. I will miss you my friend.
