    Uncle Bob, I always looked forward to going to your house when mom (Eleanor) and I would come back "home" to visit. I would sit on the couch and "bounce"and play with your girls as you and mom would catch up. You were always there for us and I wish I could be there for your girls and grands during this time. But I know you are in a better place now, no more sickness and no more pain, and I will see you again some day. Rest in peace Uncle Bob!

    My dad bought the house across from Family Dollar on route 22 in 1950 moving from Steubenville to Wintersville. In 1955 we moved back to Steubenville. I used to help Bobby deliver papers and we paled around together. I remember the building that was next to Bobbys house where his dad made the upstairs into a place for us boys to hang out in. There was 4 of us that loafed around together for the 5 years that we lived in Wintersville, riding our bikes and playing baseball. There was Bobby, Dick Cole, William (Bud) Jackson and me (Buckie). REST IN PEASE BOBBY
