To my cousins and extended kin, I am so sorry for the loss of Uncle Bob (as I called him). I have a great memory of him taking me on the lake to bass fish (my first and only time) and then cleaning it (hopefully my last time), and then eating the freshest fish I have ever enjoyed.

I will remember him as a great lover of the outdoors and the hunting sports, and a warm smile. In Thanksgiving for his life and the legacy of his family.

I am so sorry for your loss. Bob was a wonderful neighbor and the best gardener I have ever known. He will be missed.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

We are very saddened to hear of Bob's passing. He was such a kind man with a big heart and a great smile, always with a warm greeting for and interest in others. We got to know him as he walked his dog on our road, then later on at his house or at church. We will miss him dearly, and send our caring sympathy to his family.

Thanks Bob for your generosity of your time that you put into me when I was a young man. Both at home and at the camp ground. The many hours we spent fishing together meant the world to me. I want to thank the rest of the Rooney family as well for the same, especially Rob. I'm sorry for this major event in all your lives. We get used to our Parents always being there when we need them and nothing really ever fills that spot after they are gone. As my father used to say it's a tough row to hoe.
Love you guys!!
Highest Regards
Tom
