We grew up together spent time from grade school to high school..Bob was a funny guy seemed to always be smiling. We sat together at the 50th reunion and reminisced about our childhood. I never dreamed that would be the last time I would see him. From Marvin, Denny and Bruce Johnson our thoughts and prayers go out to Bobs family. A good guy I will miss but won't forget.
