Dear Robin,
I just learned of your father's passing, and I want you to know how sorry I am. I am glad I had met him and gotten to know him when he used to come in to Gansett when Kayla and Jake were here. Because of a prior commitment this evening I will not be able to give you my condolences in person, but I want you to know how very sorry I am.

Jeannette, Robin, Rhonda, Tony, Nicholas, Daniel, Alicia, Kayla, Stephen, Jake -

We are still in shock. Bob was a good friend and a loving husband, father and grandfather. He was so proud of his family. He was taken away from you much to soon. We have many fond memories of the good times we had together over the years. May those memories and the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. God Bless you all during this difficult time.
