I spent many years with Bob , through our apprenticeship & Gadsden & Hughes @ fivedock , when we were 16 until the last drink I had with him at the flemington hotel last year , So many great memorys , nights out , surfing , party's , weekends away fishing , Bobby always had a smile on his face and could make you laugh , will miss him heaps but I'm glad we were best mates for so many years , Cheers to Robert ....
