Jan and Bob my sincerest condolences. Your dad Mr. “C” was always a class person. He meant a lot to me. I remember helping him the odd time while in his garage. He always had a helpful hint for me. I will never forget the work bench going into my garage. he will be missed.

From what I remember Uncle Bob was always my gentle giant. When I was younger he was so tall to me. He always treated me with such kindness. Such a great man and I was lucky to call him my Uncle. I feel sadden that I had not made more effort to see him and Aunt Alice when she was with us. Now they will be together once more in heaven. Sending my sincere condolences to you Janice and Bob; also the whole family. Rest in Peace Uncle Bob.

I was so sorry to hear of your Dad passing. Bobby Fraser told me he had visited him not that long ago and I was hoping to too. With the Bala reunion it’s put a lot of people in touch. I will always remember all the fun times I had at your house playing and your wonderful boy Leroy.
Thinking of you both and your families Janice and Bob. Both your Mom and Dad share a very found spot in my heart. I truly wish I could have come today!
My deepest sympathies!
HUGS Love Lynn McCutcheon
