Carol, Janet and Kathy,
I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. One of my fondest memories of Bob was when he and I played checkers one day. He told me there was no way I could beat him, but I did. We laughed and laughed that day and I still remember it. Of course, now when I think of it, he probably let me win, but it doesn't matter. We sure had fun.
Another fond memory was when we all watched tv at your house since you were the only ones who had a tv. We hadn't bought ours yet. All of us kids sat on the floor while your parents and my mom sat on the "couch".
Love, Chris Benson Smith

We are so sorry for your loss. Your dad was a very special man and I know how it hurts to say goodbye to a man who loved you all so much. Take pride in knowing that his family is a strong, happy one and that he was loved by all of you. I'm thinking of you Kathy, and saying prayers for all of your family.
Sincerely,
