Everyone here on Newton Ave is so sad to hear of Bob’s passing. He was one of a kind. I’ll miss talking with him at the end of their driveway or seeing him sitting out on the driveway soaking up the sun on a sunny day. I always enjoyed the little smile he’d get when I’d tell him he had the best looking yard in the neighborhood – I know he took great pride in that. I hope Lois is doing okay. We’re keeping her and your family in our thoughts and prayers. Rest in peace, Bob.
