Thinking about Doc a lot the last few days. Just drove by and saw his shingle still hanging there. What a blessing he was to so many people. Hugs and love to Maria and his family & of course Dr. ARM

We still share with so many friends and relatives how great he was as a doctor and as a friend. We found a chiropractor in Florida that 's good ,but not as great as he was. We just miss your smiling face and your crazy jokes and antics. Rest in peace my friend. A special hello to Maria.

We miss him greatly and can't believe it's been that long since he passed. He was the best- as a chiropractor and a close friend.No matter what shape you were in going into his office, you always came out smiling and laughing. we still haven't found a chiropractor as good as him. We think of him often and always remember his crazy antics. My husband John and him were always trying to outdo one another. Rest in peace in the arms of Jesus.

Dear Maria + Bob's children + grandchildren. We just received a call last night that Bob passed away and were truly shocked + saddened greatly. Ron + Bob had been good friends for many,many years + he was the best man in our wedding 28 years ago. We loved him + are only regretful that the busyness of life kept us from keeping in better touch and we didn't know he was failing. Our love + prayers are with you at this time.

Dear Maria and family, I am at peace knowing that Doc is in his eternal home Heaven. However, I know that you are feeling a great loss.
He was a good man and I am so grateful for him helping my son back to a healthy life after his radiation. He was always there for us and so many others. He will surely be missed. May GOD give you peace in your heart.
With my deepest sympathy,

Maria and family, We are filled with so much sadness over Doc's passing. He was the best chiropractor we have ever had- such a compassionate and caring man. He always went over and above for his patients.We spoke to him two weeks ago and planned on seeing him when we come north in 2 weeks. He always considered John like a brother and the feeling was mutual. We will miss his smiling face and all his crazy antics. May you rest in peace bro. With deepest sympathy,

My husband and I were both patients of the best chiropractor; a man who truly cared about the well being of others. He was always so kind and considerate. And so sweet.
The world lost a very good person who I am sure will be missed by many !!!
I know he is in heaven.
With sincere sympathy to his wife and loved ones,
