Unfortunately, I was not fit enough to attend the ceremony today. Bob was a long serving member of the late Cornish Aviation Society (CAS) and I appreciated his support. Rest in peace, Bob.

Dear Bob - we miss you already! You were always so quick to help me get out of the car and walk safely into church, pick up anything I might have dropped, delivering flowers and chocolate when I was having Chemotherapy and couldn't have visitors, hosting our home group at your place in Bethel, livening up the men's Bible Study group - and always ready and willing to help everyone. To us, you were the living example of the Servant Heart, forever reaching out and putting others first. Conversations were always an adventure because you could change subjects every five sentences, but I loved our chats about Canada and your Great-uncle Forrest, the plant hunter. It was a privilege to be numbered among your friends and we will miss you. God bless you, dear Bobby! With love and happy memories, from Mags and Cedders.
