    To my wonderful camping friend Hazel, May all your wonderful memories of Bob bring you joy & smiles when you think of him and celebrate his life. He was the kindest, most caring man we have had the pleasure of getting to know over the last ten years. You could always count of him making jokes when he saw you to make you laugh - there was no shortage of laughter when he was around. We have many memories of him that we will cherish and we know we will see him some day again for sure! May god bless you and your family during this difficult time as you say goodbye to a WONDERFUL man. Take care of each other like Bob would want you to. Let us know if you need anything at all. Love to you Hazel xxoo, Your camping pals Billy & Lisa Hannon

    So difficult to know that such a wonderful, caring, sensitive man has been taken from his loving wife, family and friends way too soon. My parents have been best of friends with Bob and Hazel for the past 30 years enjoying many wonderful days of camping at Monadnock Bible Conference and Shir-Roy Campground. They've also enjoyed several trips together and have shared many, many special moments. Bob and my Dad were fishing buddies (although Bob was always the one catching all the fish!) I'll never forget that smile and that awesome sense of humor - he would always greet me with a big smile and a warm hug. I will surely miss that smiling face but I know I will see him again, as my parents will too, where they will enjoy many more wonerful times for eternity in heaven's campground!

    I was very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Bob hired me as a toolmaker fresh off the boat from Ireland in 1994. He was a pleasure to work for.
