What can one say about Bob. He was a loving husband to Linda, she put a smile on his face that lit up the room. When he talked about his family
You would see a sparkle in his eyes. He enjoyed working the Bingos for the Saginaw Drum And Bugle Corps, he was like a proud papa everytime he and Linda went to the Nationals. Bob alway cared about his bingo players and family, well most of them. I will miss you my FRIEND. Ron R
