Bob was admired in our Club due to his straightforward approach and for following up on what he said he was going to do. In the past few years he had taken on the role of Director which allowed him to call a number of members to give reminders. We have heard over the past few days how those phone calls could get lengthy. Bob was never one to want the spotlight and preferred to be in the background but his presence will be missed.
