So sorry to hear about the passing of your Dad…I have to agree with Mike when I say, Uncle Bob’s and Auntie Ann’s Christmas memories are some of my favorite! Us cousins would run downstairs to play first thing! Your Dad was always the life of the party! Thinking about you all today!
Michael & Mary Beth Hoy
Dear Kathy, Karen, Lawrence and your families,
So sorry to receive the sad news about your Dad tonight.
Your Dad and Mom and your whole family always held such a special place in our hearts. Many of my earliest memories as a kid involve driving to Kitchener to go to Bob and Anne’s or hearing that your family was coming to Hensall for a visit. Those were such happy times and I am grateful for the many kindnesses of your Dad and Mom over the years.
Hugs from here.

Having just heard of Uncle Bob’s passing – somehow, somewhere we seem to have lost touch with some of the Kropf Family – can I say this: I used to love going to Uncle Bob’s house at Christmas. I can remember like it was yesterday even though it was 45 years ago. The fun we had as a family (cousin’s and all), stays in my mind today.
You will be missed sir, but not forgotten.
I had the coolest Uncle’s, and you were one of them.
Say hi to Dad, and let the party in heaven continue.
Hugs to your surviving family.
