    Remembering Bob as one of the nicest, soft-spoken and well-respected officers I worked with at Timmins Police. From his love of Springer Spaniels to creating new types of beautiful roses, showed a gentle and creative side to him. So sorry for your loss.  RIP Bob.

    To the MacDonald family,

    We have two ways of remembering those who leave us.  We can cry over their absence or smile as we recall the memories that have been made.  Tonight I smile as I recall card games, maraschino chocolates and grasshopper beverages.  May you find peace and love in the memories you cherish.  With my deepest sympathy for your loss.

    My Uncle Bob was a great man. He was kind, patient and a true gentleman. Men like my Uncle are a rare breed. He was a family man through and through and I am forever grateful for the memories that I have of him. I will miss him dearly but his memory will live on in our hearts always. Love you Uncle Bob.
