Dear Robbie, Karl and Marjean - I just learned about your father's passing, and I am so sorry. You had the most wonderful parents, and I did get to see them both before your Mom passed away at their home in Arlington. They were both so gracious and sweet. Again, I am so sorry to hear about his passing, but you know where they both are, which I know is a great comfort. Love, Bunny Hazouri Hess

To all my wonderful family in Florida...Marjean, Karl & Robbie and so many cousins - I am so sorry to hear of Uncle Bob's passing. While we are sad and mourn the loss, we can also rejoice in the fact the he knew the Lord and is now with Christ for eternity. Uncle Bob & Aunt Dot made a significant impact in shaping my life during those summer visits when I was young. How they are both missed. May the peace and comfort that only the Lord can bring, be with you all at this time. All of my love & blessings...

With my deepest sympathy to you Marjean, Karl, Bobby and family...I will always have the fondest memory of your dad and Aunt Dot from our times together at Mount Olive Presbyterian Church. I even remember the old Buick Skylark Aunt Dot and Marjean would drive (I really liked that car!). May the Lord bless you and your family and bring you peace during this time.

To All Mr Hidalgo's Loving Family

We will miss him and we will feel the great loss. Rather than think of how empty our lives are with his passing, let us consider how full our lives are because God blessed us with him. Thank you Lord for this blessing.

Hildalgo Family -

I admired Uncle Bob's honesty, sense of humor, and, of course, his easy way. He and Aunt Dot always treated Sarah and me as if we were their own grandchildren, and it is so hard to see the years go by and this chapter close. I am so sorry for your loss. Uncle Bob will stay in my heart and mind. We will always love him.

To my dear Mr. Hidalgo, you will be sorely missed by all. The love and warmth that you spread while on this earth were phenomenal, and now that you are with God, you will be able to look back down here and see what a fine job you did with all your children, grandchildren and great grans. Your legacy lives on. Your being on this earth made it a much better place and I am honored to have known you. Rest in Peace with God in Heaven.

You won the race and beat all of us to heaven! You will be missed so much. Your New York humor and your laid back style will stay in our hearts forever. You blossomed in your weak latter years. We can't wait to see you again. We know that you are once again dancing with Situ, and we know that you will cheer us on down here. We love you!
