I'm deeply saddened by the passing of Bob. He taught me much when I moved from the city to the rural world.

Uncle Bob always treated us with respect, when we were really young he knew we would remember. What a grand, kind, strong man. We always had that sheep raising connection, it was a passion we shared. Until we meet again, we will miss our Uncle Bob.

Bob and Betty have been a part of my life since day one and he will really be missed by me. The softest spoken and most polite person I have ever known. I always enjoyed my visits.
