Dear Kathy, Andrea and family. I was so saddened to learn of the passing of Bob. When we lived next door to each other on Casey Street in Niagara Falls, my late mother Bea and I could not have been blessed with better neighbours. Bob was an awesome individual who exuded kindness, and had a keen sense of humour., and it was a pleasure at times to spend time with you at barbeques, dinners or just drinks in our respective back yards. Bless you all during this sad time. Gareth (Green)
