    Vickie and Gene,

    To say that we all shed a tear when you notified us of Bob’s passing is an understatement. He was part of our extended family and an adopted uncle to our girls for many years. He was a talented artist selling his cratfs all over the world and had a deep rich singing voice that many would have been surprised to hear. For 40 years he was an older brother and mentor to me as he has been to so many people through his lifetime. He touched so many people at camps in Alberta and Saskatchewan and his loss leaves a big hole I wish I had the opportinuty to say goodbye one more time.

    Love and Prayers,
    Brad, Linda, Becky and Sarah MacLeod
