Dear Lois,
A dear friend of mine fowarder this notice to me about Bob. I last saw Bob nearly ten years ago when I finally moved back up north. Since then I have thought of you both often and the wonderful times we spent together at your home and at the lake house. I must say that everthing I know today about marketing I've learned from Bob, who had that unique ability of taking something very complex and explaining it simply. You both have always been in my thought and prayers and will continue to be so.

Lois,
Bob Yobaggy, What can one say? One of a kind! He will be missed greatly. Lisa and I enjoyed our time spent with you both, especially that Chistmas when we sang carols and he played his banjo at our house.

Mrs. Yo, Scott & Lisa, I'm so sorry to hear of Mr. Yo's passing. Since my dad shared the sad news, I've been reflecting on memories from our "wonder years" on Warwood. I remember Mr. Y as the oak tree of our little community. Always there, always dependable. His little Renault (and then the Scout) consistently home every evening. He was the one I ran to when our kitchen was on fire. He came running with extinguisher in hand to save the day! I never heard him raise his voice, even when I put my hand through your glass door (I still have a scar to remind me of those fun and carefree days!)
Thank you for that invitation long ago to visit WH Baptist. It was the love and comfort found at WHB that drew me back to Christ years later. That invitation has had a ripple effect on many others. Thank you for sharing your faith. Thank you for being a part of sweet childhood memories. May the love of Christ surround each of you and bring you comfort.

Lois, we were shocked to see that Bob had died - what a guy he was! I have tried many times to get in touch with Lisa to no avail, but please know that she,Kevin and the kids, you and Scott are in my prayers. I have already missed his dry sense of humor....love, Lisa Farmer

Lois and family:
It is with great sadness that I saw Bob's obituary today. I have asked about him several times since I left Roanoke. He was a very special patient and person to me and I so enjoyed being his nurse(in spite of and because of all his harrassment). He fought a long battle with an upbeat attitude and I know all of you will miss him terribly. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
