Another beautiful soul has gone to heaven. My amazing Uncle Bob. You will be greatly missed. All my great memories of you and gail and Kathy at the cottage every summer. The goodtimes, the bonfires, the dinners with amazing family and friends. Lots of laughs. My best memorie to this day is of all of us going to the cottage in Orillia and Kathy and I throwing Kleenex out the windows on the highway, then laughing so hard we almost peed ourselves when the Kleenex was sticking in the grill and antenna of the cars behind us. Aunt gail and uncle Bob saying what the hell are you guys laughing at. What we didn't think would happen was when we pulled of to go to bathroom that the cars would pull off and tell them what we were doing. OMG uncle Bob was so mad saying we were getting the belt and grounded. Shit was I scared. Never saw you guys so mad lmao. Then me and Kathy started thinking about the Kleenex in all the grills and wipers and antennas and started laughing our asses off. And aunt Gail turned around you guys better not be doing it again. Bob they are doing it again. We were laughing so hard trying to say no no we're not. Good times Kathy lol. Love you uncle Bob. You will be missed so much. May you no longer be in pain and up there riding and doing what you love. Xxxxxxx

So sorry to hear about Uncle Bob. My consolences to Auntie Gail and Kathy. Bob and I did not always see eye to eye and we had some disagreements in the past, but we are both stubborn and we are both always right. I look back on those times with fondly and always with a smile. I have some lovely memories from years gone by that will stay with me for my lifetime. We will miss you. Love always, Carolyne

Dear Gail and Kathy, So sorry to hear of Bob's sudden passing. My deepest sympathy goes out to you both. Take comfort in the cherished memories you hold close to your hearts and know that he is watching over both of you now. He certainly knew how to have a good time and I will never forget his great singing voice and guitar playing. Once again, he did it his way. Sending you lots of hugs. I'm sorry I am unable to attend the service for Bob, but please know that I am thinking of both of you. Love from Carol (Marshall)

Daddy, I can't believe you are gone! Who will I call when I have a questions about ancient history or science aliens or life in general? You taught me how to swim when I was 2 and we shared a deep love for swimming and the lake ever since. You taught me so much Daddy and I still had so much to learn from you. You have always been there for me to answer any questions I had, or give me advice even when it was not asked for or listened to lol. You used to say, 'My way out the highway" and you didn't realize of maybe you did, that I had so much of you in me that I was bound to be as wild and you were in your youth too. I was "a chip the old block" for sure! I was a Wild child like you and it drove you crazy LOL So many people tell me I am just like my father, I love hearing it. I know your were so proud of me when I quit drinking and it made you so happy to see me well again and live a "normal" productive life. You couldn't tell us how you felt about Mom and I but I know you loved us with all your heart. You were a tough old biker and you were proud of it and I was always so proud of you Daddy!! The last time I saw you I asked you to write me a letter saying all the things you would say if you never saw me again, but I knew you wouldn't do ti but I must have had some kind off premonition and I also inherited your procrastination as well lol I am the last of the Gray's you used to tell me and I regret not having children so much to carry on your name Daddy. I don't know how to be in this world without you Daddy but I will be strong for Mom your companion for 60 years. I know you didn't feel good anymore Daddy for the last few years, and it would have gotten much worse so you left your body before it could. You did everything your way so its no surprise Frank Sinatra's song "My way" was one of you favourite songs, and you lived that song right till the end of your life. I love you so much Daddy xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo
