I didn't know Bob, I just happened to be doing a web search on the name. "3 kids and served on the School Board". I have 4 kids and also serve on the School Board. His Obituary indicates he is clearly a man who gave a lot to the people and community around him. Our family's thoughts and prayers go out to your family in this difficult time.
