Dick and Joyce,

It is with sadness that Janet and I learned today of Uncle Bob's death, the the last of the Sarver boys. But what a long and productive life! He always had a comment or two that made me laugh. I've heard enough stories about the escapades of the Sarver boys growing up on Glenwood Road, some of them may even be true, to last me the rest of my life! Janet and I are unable to attend the services, but our thoughts and prayers from Wisconsin will be with you.
