So much I can say about Bob...and yet it seems so inadequate. He was such a good, loving, caring man and that was reflected in every aspect of his life. When he married my sister, Helen, I knew that both of them had found someone special in the other. He treated Helen like a princess (though she might deny it!) and loved my niece Rachel and my nephew Andrew just like they were his own children. Whenever I would talk with him (which unfortunately was not that often), he was so knowledgeable and wise. There wasn't a topic that he couldn't talk about intelligently and he always felt more like a brother than a brother-in-law.
I could go on and on about the goodness in Bob but those who knew him know all about this remarkable man. I will miss his compassion...his love...his gentle spirit...and so much more. We all were blessed to have him as long as we did.
I want to share my love and deepest sympathy to Helen and all the family. I maybe 8,000 miles away but I wish I could be there with you now. Please know that I will be with you at the funeral (online)...with a very heavy heart.
