So sad to hear of the passing of my old Charge Office / Cell block oppo Bob. It was pleasure to work with both him and his dear late wife Christine. You will both be much missed.

So sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Worked with Bob and Chris in SMW custody. Great sense of humour and very professional.

Well remember Bob as a fellow regulator in the Navy and when we joined the Police we met again and swopped some great sea stories....what a lovely bloke who has "crossed the bar" Sincere condolences to his family
