Dear Pat,
We were so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. He was such a warm and generous person. Our walks in the village weren't the same after you moved. We missed stopping by your patio with our dog, Dozer, for a chat and raiding your beautiful hydrangeas in the fall. I have my own out on the lake now, and I think of you every time I cut them. God bless,

I'm very sorry for the loss of your father. I have fond memories of him, especially the support he gave us all during that first undefeated season in the fall of 1970. Please convey my condolences to your mother and your brothers.

Dear Pat and Family: I am sorry to learn of Bob's passing. He added much to the village that I continue to call home. Few of us had much by way of material things in these early years at YHS but our memories are made richer by true contributors like Bob.

Dear Pat & Family,
We have sent you sympathy cards and a memorial gift already but we will sign this guest book to let you know that we will be thinking of you November 8th and praying for you as you go thru this difficult time. We are glad we have been able to spend some time with you on different occasions, mainly for Rich & Diane's wedding and the kids' graduations. We always have enjoyed being with you and Bob and think he was a very special man. We know you will miss him. With Love & Sympathy,

My earliest memories of Bob go back to 1941, riding Mr. Parkhill's bus. He seemed so young, probably 5th grade, then but the older boys(seniors) riding the bus just loved him for his quick wit and great sense of humor. He made that bus come alive. My thoughts are with you, Pat. All us Red Brick schoolmates are going to miss him big time. Love Willie Wright

Mr Lloyd was my go to person when I worked at St John's back 2000-01. He was always so busy doing things for the church. When I think of him it puts a smile on my face. He will be missed.
