My condolences to Bob’s family.
I worked with Bob when Volvo , later Champion, was Dominion Roads Machinery. In the summer of 1976, while on a work shutdown, Bob help me build my barn. I was grateful for his help.
Years later, I would meet Bob and Bev on their walks on the square and we would have some great chats. I have lots of good memories.
