Bob Hollis
With a heavy heart have to say Bob Hollis died on 24rd of Febuary aged just 70, a week after his wife Emma. Both had cancer which they fought with tremendous courage. May they Rest In Peace

Is this the same Bob that was a Member of the site?
If so I am saddened by this news, it is a shock!
But it may be another Bob?
Anyway may I send my Condolences to the Family that remain,and may he rest in Peace now with his dear Wife!

Yes Doc, Bob Hollis from this site.

Re: Bob Hollis
Hi Marian.
Not good news, Bob was a great contributor to this site, and he had only recently been posting the odd post.
My condolences go to his family, may he meet up with his love.
Cheers Des
