I am so sorry for my sweet cousins, Uncle Bob was always happy, kind and welcoming. He indeed loved his family, I remember visits with chili, fish and much more. My favorite memory involves Christmas 2018. I was preparing for my crew and he called me out of the blue to say Merry Christmas and to see how I was doing. It meant so much to me and we had a great conversation. I hate that we could not be there but, hope all the fans knows my thoughts and prayers are with you. Love you all!
