Bob learned to read and write in mid-life.
He enjoyed his gardens and flowers, was a good artist and was devoted to his many cats.
The family wishes to thank Christina Beechey and daughter Karen for providing homemade meals and friendship for Bob at home these last years.
We also wish to thank the two “cat ladies” Anna Palombi and Sherry Suprun of the Telephone City feral cat rescue for their visits with Bob and Tommy (Bob’s latest cat) and for taking Tommy after Bob’s passing. A kind “thank you” as well to Diane Stratford and others in Bob’s neighbourhood for keep an eye on Bob.
