Leave a tribute for Robert “Uncle Bob” Eustace.
I am so sad to hear that Bob has passed away. Bob and I were a few years apart in Syracuse Chapter DeMolay and I believe that I joined the Clowns right before him. His Dad was my first line signer going into Masonry. Although I was not in close contact with Bob Jr. over the years, I kept great memories of him and his Dad. May his memory be a blessing.
Sorry for your loss our thoughts and prayers are with y'all's.
It was a pleasure to clown with Bob at shrine events especially the Shrine Circus. R.I.P. BobBo. Curly🤡🌹🌹🌹
Sorry for you loss. Uncle Bob was a great man! Praying for the family.
Bob, It was a gift that I was able to talk with you before you pasted, We have been friends for 40 years, you were my Top Line signer into the Masons. We will see you again in that eternity hevens, that house not made with hands. Rest in Peace, my Brother and friend. Ralph and Annemarie Haney
