ARRANGEMENTS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF MICHEL FUNERAL HOME
I Worked with Bob at Semco.
+ we had some mutual friends.
Funny guy and he always shared some good food because he loved to cook!
He will be Missed.
My sincere condolences to the Family!
Bob always had a smile on his face. His spirit of joy and kindness will never be forgotten.
Bobby was a supervisor with me at Semco plastic design and manufacturing. He was a great leader and role model. I learned a lot from Bob from working on machines to life lessons and we shared many laughs and good times at work. He became more than a coworker over the 2 years that we had worked together, he became a great friend. He would always bring me and the other guys in food on a weekly basis and treated us as if we were his own kids or as he called us his “puppy dogs” lol. I will never forget Bob and the love he showed to everybody at work. He will be deeply missed and my deepest condolences to his family.
