2025, Canadian Goodwill Industries, Princess Street, Winnipeg, MB, Canada

I truly had so much respect and appreciation for Bob.

On the busiest days at Canadian Goodwill you would find him volunteering for the day and always smiling! 

He is missed dearly by me and all the friends and staff he made at Canadian Goodwill.

This picture was taken at Goodwill after they played a role at one of the Fringe Festival shows. 

Sending you lots of love Brent!

As family, we only knew Brent and Bob by their first names and never called them Picky and Glory but I know most people did. They went to all family get-togethers and were always the life of the party. Bob will be missed by all. — with Bob, Brent and Ken & Carol

What did I not learn from Bobbie? He practically raise me in the Lakeview Restaurant. He mostly taught me to love everyone. Just like he did.

In April of 2024, Bob, Brent and Jay went on a once in a lifetime trip to Paris, France. And a little bit of Picky & Glory showed up.
