Jon and I and the kids want to extend our condolences to Aunt Monique, Nat and Robbie and their families. Uncle Bob was also my God father, and always had a piece of advice for me as a little girl...."listen kid...." I knew him as someone who treasured his family time. I loved my memories of Uncle Bob (along with Aunt Monique) with his sisters & brothers during card nights, up dancing with Aunt Monique or mom or other sisters, watching a hockey game, or coaching Ringette, and having the family over for a BBQ and swim (he made the best BBQ hamburgers). He is no doubt up in heaven laughing and dancing with Mom, Aunt Barb with Nanny laughing, along with others who went before him. You will be so missed Uncle Bob, we love you, and will see you someday again xo
