Dear ones,
I was sorry to hear of Bob's passing, but know he fought a gallant fight to the end, that was his style. He was a remarkable man and like an Uncle to me and my siblings. We loved and enjoyed his laughter, his enthusiasm for life and sporting events and always so positive. Goose Creek-Summerville rivalary was always a topic with us;-) He encouraged us to better educational levels by his example. We will miss him but never forget his kind heart, and generous friendship to all of us in the LaPointe family.
Love and prayers to all of you,
JoAnne and Larry Hubbard

Bob, until we meet again.
