I found out today of Bob’s passing. I was so inspired by him and his positivity and ability to laugh at things when life got tough. He was one of my sweetest patients and I will miss him. I’ll never forget when he made a toy for my son. I thought it was so sweet that he was thinking of others through his treatment. Thank you Bob for the laughs and the great convos..always a pleasure to see you at the clinic. Take care and rest easyI know you’re cracking jokes up there now.

To Eileen & Winter Family,
Very, very sorry to see the loss of Bobby.
My sister, Linda knew Bobby well. She said you could always rely on him to make you laugh.
I remember seeing him at Amtrak. He came up to me to say hello. Also, he reminded me how when he was young while hitch hiking, I stopped and took him home.
How he loved Langford. Rest in peace, Bobby.
