I am deeply sorry to hear about the passing of Bob. He was such a devoted husband, father and grandfather. Bob took all of his roles to heart and strived to honor, support and guide and most importantly love his family. He was at his happiest when he was surrounding by his family. Bob was such a hard worker and great role model to all. You are all in my thoughts at this difficult time.

My sympathies go out to DeeDee and the extended Kelly family-Bob and I have worked for the same company for over 40 years.During that time Bob always strived to do the best job for the client and the best job for Mckay-CockerHis dedication was evident to all he met.Bob made and maintained a lot of friends along the way .He always had a good sense of humour and enjoyed life at work as well as at home. Bob will be fondly remembered as the jolly old elf at the Christmas parties-a role he loved to fill. Bobs passing was much too soon,he will be well remembered by all

I had the pleasure of meeting "Uncle Bob" several times, mainly through his nephew James. Uncle Bob had a great sense of humour and I'm sorry that I won't be meeting him again on this side of the curtain. All the best to those that he leaves behind.
