Bob and Maggie will always be remembered for all of their volunteer work with the Optimist Club for years. (especially the Bravery Bead Program that was so close to their hearts).
We have many memories (and laughter) of setting up (food, food food, sharing of “secret recipes”) for events for the children of Dashwood.
They both opened their home for many meetings, BBQ in the back and along with their shared friends who also volunteered at our events.
…..and Bob’s talent as a true artist in wood working. Our thoughts are with you and your extended family.
