Dear Ellen,
We are very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. When we look out toward your garage we always see Bob. We will always miss his good natured smile and his friendship. He was a good neighbor and a good friend. Take care. Your friends.

Dearest Ellen & family....I am Bobby's first cousin and though we have not been in touch for many years, I remember his smile and teasing nature. We've had a lot of 'too soon' death in our family and know how painful this is for all of you. My prayers are with you... Peggy Harper Sipes, daughter of Rita and J.D.

To Ellen: Feel no guilt in laughter, he'd know how much you care.
Feel no sorrow in a smile that he is not here to share.
You cannot grieve forever; he would not want you to.
He'd hope that you could carry on the way you always do.
So, talk about the good times and the way you showed you cared,
The days you spent together, all the happiness you shared.
Let memories surround you, a word someone may say
Will suddenly recapture a time, an hour, a day,
That brings him back as clearly as though he were still here,
And fills you with the feeling that he is always near.
For if you keep those moments, you will never be apart
And he will live forever locked safely within your heart.

Dear Ellen
We are so saddened by Bob's passing. He was such a genuine person. When I look out my window I expect to see him out there with the garage door open puttering as we call it. In my mind he will always be there.
Please accept our heartfelt and deepest sympathy at this sad time. May you find comfort in your memories of your Dear Bob.
With Love,
Ilene, Steve and Eric
