Oh Diane, I am so sorry to hear about Bob’s passing. He and I were good friends for a long time, going all the way back to High School and Sunnybrook CC. We all made some great memories with friends and our parents at the club. It was a good time. I cannot express my sadness and I want you to know that my thoughts with you and your family. Take Care of Yourself and Your Family.

Regrets to the Bulliment family. We are so sorry to hear about Bob's death. We remember him from camping at Holland State Park. He and Bruce used to run around looking for girls and having a good time. Our wish for you as a family is to keep your good memories. Blessings from Pat, Tom and Dona Walcott.

Oh Lord did he put up with us Dana. I instantly think of our trip to FL because we were like 2 nuts stuck in a car for 300 hours. I have such great memories of him. He was so lucky to have you. There isn't a better daughter he could have had. I am thinking of you and your sweet family. Love, Katie

Uncle Bob, it's been too long since we've had a chance to hang out on the porch on a nice summer day, talk about the Spartans, and laugh until tears were streaming down our faces. Those are the memories I will always remember and treasure. I will never be able to thank you enough for all the joy you brought, the rides you gave me to drivers training, the countless games of yahtzee we played, the hours we spent sharing stories, or your service to our country. Thank you for everything Uncle Bob, I love you and miss you.
