God rest you cousin.
I have known Bob since he was a teenager. I was his Aunt thru marriage having been married to his Uncle Carl William Pownall until he passed away at the very young age of 50. I always remained an honorary member of the Pownall family all of whom I dearly love. Maxine raised three wonderful young men who lost their Daddy at a very young age. Bob was kind of shy but always very friendly and kind and loving. He was so proud of his beautiful wife Marilyn and loved his kids tremendously. I know his loving influence will be carried on in his children
I have many memories of Bobbie because he was a cousin only 1 year older than me. So a summary is: he was kind and caring and lots of fun, especially playing football or card games and just visiting. I will miss him until we meet again in Heaven!
