Dear Darlene and Family, Please accept my deepest sympathies on the loss of Bob. He was a very special person and we are all much the richer for having known him and shared his friendship. I hope and pray that time will soon allow you to look back on your memories of him, not in sorrow, but in fondness. My heart goes out to you.

Sympathy to Darlene & family. Bob gave us years of fun and entertainment with his calling.

To Darlene and the entire McMillan Family - All our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. You and yours have suffered a great personal loss, but please be comforted by the many friendships gained in the "Square Dance World". Many people have fond memories of Bob, a man who gave of himself to make others lives better. Be proud of your Man. Square Dancing is better because of his many contributions. On behalf of the Dots and Dashers Square Dance Club, The Wandering Squares of Alberta and the Calgary & District Square & Round Dancer's Association, thank you Bob (and Darlene) for the memories.

Dear Darlene, John, Dwayne, Darla & Bob's brothers and sister. We are so sorry for your loss. Bob was a wonderful uncle and we will all miss his infectious smile and fun sense of humor. Love Donna, Don, Jason, Kris and family

Dear Darlene and family, We are so saddened by Bob's passing but we know he is at peace now. We have so many happy memories of our times with you and Bob over the past 31 years. We will always treasure them. Bob will be missed. Joan and Lord Beaudin

On behalf of all the old and new square dancers at the "Banff Trailers" square and round dance club in Calgary, AB. We would like to pass on our condolences to all his family, friends and fellow dancers on the passing of "Bob".

Darlene and family, we are saddened by Bob's passing. Our deepest sympathy to you and yours. We have many fond memories of Bob. One incident comes to mind. We had just safely parked our trailer at a week-end Square Dance camp out. Bob came over to greet us and advised we should park in a different spot where free power and water was available. Several very authentic looking numbered posts with power and water outlets were located in that area. We backed in under Bob's direction up to post number two, and then went about setting up our trailer. The water and power outlets didn't work. Later Bob picked up fake post and located it in an other spot ready to start the prank over again.

Dear Darlene and family, You are in our prayers as you go through this difficult time. I remember Bob being a part of the choir at St. Leonard's on the Hill when I was the Minister there. We had some good chats about square dancing. God grant him peace and comfort you all. Derek & Pauline Hoskin

Dear Darlene and family....We are saddened to hear about Bob...and send you our heartfelt thoughts and prayers. We always enjoyed our visits with Bob, both at the farm and down in Yuma. Take good care and hold tight to all your wonderful memories. Hugs, Wayne and Cheryl (McCord} Harrison

Dear Darlene and Family - We are so sorry - our thoughts and prayers are with you. Dave & I have great memories of you & Bob helping us when we were learning the art of being a square dance caller couple. We remember the Acme Campout we did together one summer. Great memories!
