  7. Tom and Jane Wood says:

    Bob was a great guy, a good friend, and like a brother to both Tom and I. Our children learned a lot about airplanes from him and he loved getting them flying airplanes for their birthdays. He was like an Uncle to them. Over the years, Bob always went with us on our family vacations and he was always tasked with being the Captain of our Pontoon boat – Captain Bob! He was such a kind person and would help anyone if they needed it. We have missed him since he moved back to Wisconsin but we understand he needed to be with his family and to get the best medical treatment there. He will be forever in our hearts and we will miss him dearly.
