Al & Bea: So sorry to hear of your brothers passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
Sending sincere sympathy to all of Bob's family & also to Larry & Linda & Allan & Bea. The South family were close neighbours on 8th Line & really good friends. Bob went through public school with our daughter, first 2 years at the one room school then in Brigden at the central school.
Bob was much too young to pass away, he should have had many more years to enjoy his family.
Sincerely Marie Sheppard

My deepest condolences to Bob’s family. Bob was a great guy to know and co-worker with the Construction Services Group. He always looked out for his brothers and sisters in the Insulators Union. I am saddened to see him gone – I enjoyed having a cold one with him now and then.
We are so sorry to hear about Bob. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.
