Gary Mason emailed “Sad to learn of Bob Stamps' passing. He was a good person to be around.”Kevin Mitchell (Life member, Past President and long-term committee member of ANZROC) phoning from Tasmania said how sorry he was to read of Bob’s passing. Bob had given great support to the ANZ Staff Club when Kevin was involved. Bob was always a reliable and hardworking colleague and always friendly with staff club members and committee. Will be missed. RIP Bob.John Inglis emailed “Bob enjoyed many years of service with the ANZ, where he was also a staff club committeeman. He was a very good sportsman playing cricket for the MCC in one of their sides. After his time in the Bank, he worked in local government until his retirement. He also spent over 30 years as Greensborough RSL's Social Club president. His service to the RSL was recognised with a Hall of Fame award from ANZAC house, being one of very few non-service personnel to be honoured in that way. Vale Bob.”Alan Lauder emailed” In the late 60’s I was a shift supervisor at the Emanza Centre in South Yarra, Bob was one of my assistants. He was a most likeable fellow, full of fun and well-liked by all of us on the floor, especially all of the ladies on the machines. Sorry to hear that he has passed away, especially at such a young age in these times.”Ken Parry emailed “Very sad day for all that knew him. Fantastic man was Bob, excellent sportsman and I had many an enjoyable day on the park playing cricket with him. Great competitor and teammate. Condolences to the family.”
