When Shakey Schober came to California
November 22, 2012
Bob was the love of my Grandma Roses' life. She brought him to our house in California so that we could all meet him and of course, fall in love with him. He had the best stories and smiles of anyone I have ever met.
He had never met my family and yet showed up at the house with gifts for my boys. Bob was always positive and happy and we loved him like our own grandpa. He called himself "shakey" Schober as he could not hold the camera steady when he took our picture. It takes a cool guy to be able to laugh at himself.
We will miss him and cherish the memories and photos that we have. He made my Grandma's golden years glow with warmth and love.
Prayers go out to Bob's family, you must be so proud!
Love from Pam, Griff, Major and Griffie McConal
