He was a loving husband, father to three, and grandfather to seven.  Bob was a great father-in-law and after we purchased the farm he played a large part in helping me manage the work required to maintain the place in some semblance of shape.  Not sure who was helping who as he really enjoyed coming down and tractoring or running the zero-turn mower all day while I did my &#8216;day job&#8217; in the house. Here are a few pictures over the years of him down here at the farm.  He will be sorely missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li
