Condolence: Uncle Bob was very special to me. When I was 14, I traveled to California and was able to stay with the Vandenbosch family for a month. Aunt June was a fantastic cook, cousin Lisa was a fun little 2 year old and Uncle Bob would take me for ice cream often.

I will miss talking to Uncle Bob on the phone. He would always be so interested in how me and my family were doing. My mom, Mary Lou, was his little sister. She adored him and when the Vandenbosch's visited us in Indiana, it was always a special treat.

Please know Aunt June and Lisa how deeply sorry Jan and I are for your loss.

Condolence: Dear June and Lisa:
Bob was such a wonderful neighbor and friend. We have had so many wonderful times over the years at Bear Lake. Our thoughts and prayers are with both you during these times.
God bless you all.

Condolence: It is with a heavy heart that I write this note to June and Lisa, because words cannot explain The love I feel for your husband and father. Bob Vandenbosch was like a second father to me, having grown up with Lisa I was treated as a second child. My life has been enriched by all the experiences Bob and June exposed me to, from skiing to Disneyland, I did it all with this family.
My favorite memories of Bob was the quiet time together just throwing the ball for Pupup or walking behind Bob as I mimiced him brushing his teeth as he strolled up and down the hallway.
I am very sorry for your great loss and please know he will always be in my thoughts.
With love and affection,
Julie Weiss

Condolence: Dear Aunt June and Lisa,
