So young to be taken from this world! Our prayers and thoughts go out to your dad, mom and sister during these days! We are sorry we can't be at the service but we will be thinking of you! Although we haven't kept in touch for quite some time, we will still remember the little Rob that bit my big toe when you were a wee lad. Also remember you coming to visit Uncle Bruce in Red Lake for a few days. We were just looking at the pictures this summer. Your spirit will always be with us. Love Uncle Bruce and Aunt Marilyn - Posted by: Bruce and Marilyn Smyth (Uncle and Aunt ) on: Dec 14, 2014

That fast one you pulled on those clowns in Portage when you were there for contact training in the mid 80s is one of my favourite memories. That'll teach 'em to send you for prop wash and hangar line!!! Hope you're out with your grandma and having a good visit. Thoughts and prayers for your family. - Posted by: Chuck Ross (Friend from the Air Force) on: Dec 14, 2014
