He enjoyed fishing, camping, Nascar, and especially bingo on Saturdays. Bob always said what was on his mind even if you didn’t want to hear it, he was a hard worker, and would give you the shirt off his back.
He liked to bet against the Broncos (Denver Donkeys) as long as you gave him 3 points no matter who
they played. Flamin Hot Cheetos and chocolate kisses were often shared by him and the
grand kids. We were all fortunate to have him in our lives and loving us all unconditionally.
He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Clyde Bielss, brother in law Bob Turner, and son
Norman Skiles. He will be greatly missed by all.
