No matter what words that we choose to use, nothing but God’s eternal love for us can dull the pain of the loss of a loved one or friend. I knew Bob, and I have fond memories of his joining our impromptu baseball “gatherings” in Concord Virginia during our youth of the 1970’s. His witty nature and his friendly demeanor was the catalyst for his ability to make new friends. With warm regard, I look back at the times when he gave me the nickname “Chainsaw”. I shall never forget it, and will cherish those memories forever. I also pray that the love of God will permeate throughout his family at this time of great loss. We will all miss you my friend.

My heartfelt sorrow goes to Bob's family. I remember Bob when we were kids growing up in Concord, going to school together playing kickball on the blacktop in 4th,5th,&6th grades. Three of my group of buds from then have passed on. I'm sure they are causing a ruckus heavenward as they were all great friends. I will really miss Bob he was the first guy I ever kissed in 6th grade everytime I saw him even years later, even recently he would fret me about that among other things. He always had a smile and comment about everything. He will be greatly missed and I'm so glad he touched my life. My sincere sympathy to his family Carolyn Torbert Danos

My grandmother was his first grade teacher in elementary school at Concord, Bobby always had a smile on his face and had a love for driving tractor trailors. Even though I haven't seen him in years his smile and blonde hair have always been in my memory. May God bless all his family in their time of sorrow.
