Nina: Sorry for your loss. My Dad and Bob were very good friends.
My condolences to your family. Bob (and Phil) serviced my company car to insure my safety on the road. Bob always greeted me with a smile and a story. In addition, he and Peggy were great neighbors. It was always good to run into Bob in town and have a pleasant exchange with him. He was an old school mechanic with Jesus in his heart.
