Dear Bacon Boys,
Your father was a man who's memory I will always treasure. Be it cooking the BBQ or forever chasing us to wash sand off our feet. I have so many happy childhood memories, to be honest, of both your parents.
Eventually though the inevitable comes to us all & I share my condolences but also my thanks. For Robert played a hugely positive role in my happy childhood & also gave wise counsel in a sometimes turbulent adolescence. Gone but never forgotten.
With deepest gratitude, Al.

Sad to hear of Bob's passing. Have great memories of freedom camping around East Cape circa 1967. Bob packed his slippers!
