Sorry for your loss. Bob and I were on
the same shift volunteering at the hospital. We really enjoyed working with
him.

Bob was a volunteer at the Hospital for over 5 years with 2,300 hours of service. We enjoyed seeing him every week and he truly loved helping people. Bob always had a smile for everyone and we are so fortunate to have had time with him.

I am sorry for your family's loss, KEN

Bob was a great man. He helped a lot of people in Thermos like myself. I'm glad he had found Christ through my cousin Gene Myers years ago. May you rest in peace Bob. God bless the family

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
