When we moved to Chilliwack from Manitoba in 1953 Bob soon became my best friend. We went to school together and played together. Along with his brother Garry and my brothers Rick and Gerry we played street hockey, touch football and sandlot baseball. We were fierce competitors in Babe Ruth baseball, Bob with Rotary Club and myself on Kinsmen Club. Later we both played for Chilliwack in Connie Mack baseball. We both went immediately into banking upon leaving high school, Bob with Bank of Nova Scotia and I joined the Bank of Montreal.  We were frequent dinner guests at each other’s homes and Bob and Garrys mom and dad were like 2nd parents to me. Chilliwack in the 50’s was a great place to grow up with a population of only 5,000 compared to present day 55,000. As we both moved around the Province we gradually lost touch and I hadn’t seen Bob since the mid 60’s but we had a great childhood together.   My condolences to his brother Garry and his family.
