Sandra: your loss is heartfelt by both of us, but Heaven's gain is known. His support for you during yours and Beth's sewing madness during COVID, and during our formative years of Saugeen Hospice, was unending. He will be remembered fondly by both of us.

- Ed ERMELDeepest Sympathy Sandra and to the entire families. Bob is fondly remembered as a dear friend. Bob was always helpful to reach out and be resourceful at the church and in the community. Bob helped put in kitchen flooring for me when I bought my first duplex in Hanover. He also helped fix some plumbing issues for me and I was grateful. Bob always recognized Kay and myself at church events ie luncheons or in the grocery store or giving blood work. Kay and I will not forget Bob in all of his kind and considerate gestures.
Rest now in everlasting peace.

- Joyce MooreSo sorry for your loss, our sincere condolences condolences
When my youngest granddaughter was in J.K. Bob was the bus driver on occasion.The regular was a lady.One morning Bree had picked a small bouquet of flowers. Bob told me that she came up the steps and thrust out the flowers and looked up and saw Bob instead of the lady.She hesitated for just a second then handed him the flowers.
He said he was quite honoured…..never had he received flowers before.
Sandra, my sincere condolences on the passing in eternal life of your dear husband Bob. Extending consolation to you and your family.
