bob was the kind of guy that made the world a little better just by being in it. They just don't make them like that any more. I will miss him every day. xoxo - Posted by: j () on: Jul 30, 2013

Our deepest condolences Janis, Robbie and Billy. We will hold our memories of Uncle Bob close to our hearts. He will be forever loved and missed by all who were blessed to have him in their lives. - Posted by: Randy & Tracey Motkaluk (Family) on: Jul 30, 2013

Bob was a hard working guy and a pleasure to work with. He made us all laugh with his humour and wit. When we tried to help him unload the beer we either got in his way or slowed him down... sure don't make em like that anymore. You will be missed. - Posted by: Jane Thom (co-worker) on: Jul 29, 2013

Our deepest sympathy to Gloria and her family. Having worked with Gloria for many years we also had the pleasure of knowing and socializing with Bob. He is a very special person and would go shopping for a bargain for anyone that asked - he loved to shop. He treated Gloria, her sisters and her mother like his own. Bob is a true gentleman and will be remembered fondly. - Posted by: Peggy and Wayne Maxymchuk (Friend and Co-worker) on: Jul 29, 2013

Bob, many days have past since I last worked with you. You were a mentor and a great person to know. I will smile remembering the good times I got to spend with a one of a kind gentleman that loved his family very much. Bob, you're one of those people you never forget. God bless you! - Posted by: Rod (co-worker) on: Jul 29, 2013

My sincerest condolences to Gloria and family. I had the honour and pleasure of working with Bob for nine years. Having shared many a lunch hour together, it was always amusing to watch him eat his cold can of stew or soup. I will always think of you every time I make our two favorites, headcheese(with lots of garlic) and wheat. R.I.P. my friend. Jerry - Posted by: Jerry Kolbuck (Friend & co-worker) on: Jul 29, 2013
