Bob not only restored furniture, but restored people's dreams in life and was always kind. I worked for Kindel furniture and had friends at Baker. Rest in peace Sir.

I'm so sorry to hear this sad news. The thoughts and prayers of the Youngquist family are with you all. When I told my mother of Bobby's passing, she was shocked, but then said. "Bobby was on my heart all day, and now I know why." My mother is Bobby's God-Mother. Please take comfort in God's own love and concern. His eye is always on the sparrow. I'm sorry Bobby is gone so soon. Blessings.
