Dear Carole and Family,
It is sad news to hear of Bob’s passing and on behalf of Marylou and our family I extend to you our sincere and heartfelt condolences.
The spirit of belonging to a family, which pervaded during my time with CKBW, I attribute in large measure to Bob’s stewardship. He cared about people and exemplified a confident and assured leadership style which earned the respect and loyalty of many. It was an honour to have known him and he will be missed.

Dear Carole, Blair and David, Todd and Lynn,
I have so many great memories of Bob. He was always there with good advice and a positive can-do spirit. When Todd and I used to pretend we were hockey play-by-play announcers, I wished I could have had his voice. It's hard knowing he's not going to be there for all of you and all his good friends. I'm going to miss him and just know that I am holding you all close in my heart.

Dear Carol and Beverly,
Our heartfelt condolences to you on Bob’s passing.
I have many fond memories of the MacLaren family, Orris and Sadie, Bob and Beverly, as neighbors and friends. I can remember Bob and Ginny on Telefun as my mother and I would scramble to copy down those recipes and what a gift it was when they were finally published. Bob was always held in high esteem in this community and friends and neighbors were very proud of him and what he accomplished. Bob was always so cheerful, friendly, polite and thoughtful and it was always a pleasure to be in his presence.
I was just looking at the picture of Bob in a 1941 Crousetown School photo. My mom and dad were in that photo, too, and there are only one or two of those students now who are still living. Time passes and life goes around full circle. May your many wonderful memories, good times together and your love for this great man sustain you as you grieve his loss.
My Rob send his regards as well. He would often mention having talked with Bob on the golf course when they were both playing the game they truly love(d).
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Hugs to you both. God bless.

We were saddened to read Robert's obituary. Having only CKBW to listen to as we were growing up we heard Robert's voice a good many times. We came to enjoy his distinct voice. We know you have a lot of great memories to hang onto to help you heal over your loss. Also please open your Bible to John 5:28,29 and read about the Resurrection that is there for Robert. We want to leave you all our love and best wishes at this sad time. Del & Mary

Hello Carole......there may be a lot of water under the bridge, but one never forgets favorite high school friends.....I'm deeply saddened in your loss and want you to know I am thinking of you during this, one of the saddest moments in time. No matter how prepared one might be, it's the finality which hits home with far more impact and differently from that for which one might be prepared. May your 38 years of wedded bliss be a reminder to help sustain you during the days ahead. With my sincerest sympathy, Horace Randall
