To Crystal, Vicky, & Family,

I just wanted you all to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. Although people say they understand what you are going through, no amount of understanding can erase the space in your hearts that Robert once filled. I have prayed for comfort, peace, and contentment to find you as you walk with Robert to the end of this path, to see him off on his new journey. You need only to think of him and I promise you, he will always be there in your hearts and memories. With my deepest sympathy, Terry Glenn

To the Family,

I am saddened to learn of the homegoing of Bobby. When I came to work at OAG I immediately recognized him from the Tuesday night FOP Bingo game. Once we started talking we realized that our children (Katy & Jordan) went to school together. Bobby was a wonderful person. May your warm memories of him bring a smile your way. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way
