I wanted to leave our condolences, deepest thoughts and oyr heartfelt prayers sooner but didnt know what to say. The day we learned of Bob's passing was such a shock and we were just at such a loss for words. Though we made the move to Toronto from Owen Sound we will always treasure the memories. While living in Owen Sound our morning just wasnt right if we didnt have Dock on and listening to Bob and Diana. Diana, Your family, Bob's family and Brandon and Carissa. Dock family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you now and through all the days. We send our deppest sympathies to you during this time.

Rest In Peace Bob
You Will Be Missed. πŸ•Š

For those who were fortunate enough to meet Bob, although simply aquaintences, we feel like we've lost a true friend. Bob's incredible sense of humor and "come what may aditude" helped us forget our troubles and meet each day with a certain confidence and cheerfulness, no matter what troubles may be present. It still seems like a dream that can't be real but sadly it is real. I am but one of many of your loyal listeners, and I am sure we all feel the loss. Make 'em laugh Bob...in heaven as on earth. Diana, please, be strong and take care of yourself and your family. Rest in Peace Bob. Forever, Jack Hamilton, Elmwood P.I.!

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.
