Uncle Bob (as all of us called him) was a great person. He lived a long life that afforded him many experiences life gave him. I will always remember how he lit up when talking about Tinnie. He would beam from ear to ear. They loved each other very much and now they are dancing and enjoying their new time together again. I really enjoyed working with him at CompuType. Always telling us a story, or funny joke or how things were handled in the past. He was always a wealth of knowledge and I can still hear him giggle.
Bob will be missed a lot and thank you for your service!

I knew Bob and Tinnie. They were a very lovely couple. They lived in Swansea and I use to do there lawn. He was so happy to be able to go to work at computype. Always had a big smile on his face when he would come home from work. My condolences to the family. Fly high Bob and tell Tinnie we’ll all see yaw soon.

I will miss him. I recently took him a piece of chocolate pie. I asked him if he still liked it and he said “Does a pig like slop”? I am originally from Benton and I became immediate friends with Bob and Tinnie.
