I will practice meditation for Bobby so his journey may be at ease. He was a lovely man who was full of kindness and humor right from his youthful days we spent together in Marysville,NB, the Crockett Street Gang, including 333 Lord Beaverbrook Squadron Air Cadets in Fredericton. May your journey be full of joy and in the company of angels Bobby! Laters Bobby!
So sorry to read of Bobby’s passing. He was one of the many Marysville Bobs that hung out in our teenage crowd. We all loved Bobby with his wide smile and red cheeks. I think of him regularly and always will when I use the crystal salad bowl he gave us as a wedding gift in 1969. Our condolences to his family and friends. Ruth and Bob
