Not sure what to say?

It is with a sad heart that I read of Bob's passing. I have known your father since 1967 and there wasn't a day that we didn't talk on our ham radios as we drove NW Cornell to work.
Bob was a founding father of OTVARC and was a charter member when we incorporated with the IRS and State of Oregon. I enjoyed working with Bob with the local Boy Scouts and will always remember our outings and our trip to the national convention. It was a privilege to know him and I know that he is now...

I didn't have the privilege of knowing Bob, but I do have the honor of knowing his son Keith, who reflects all the goodness of his father. I wish the family peace in the wonderful memories of Bob.

So sorry to learn of Bob's passing. I remember him well from my days at Union Pacific Railroad. Sincere condolences to his family and friends -- may the many happy memories sustain you in this sorrowful time.

It is with great sadness that we learned of Bob's passing. He was a wonderful man who was loved by both of us and our children, Morgan and Megan. May God strengthen you all in your sadness.

I was so saddened to read of the death of your father. Bob and I worked together at UP on his highway projects - he in the engineering dept and I in the law dept. Please accept my condolences for your heart-breaking loss.

Sad for the passing of such a wonderful man. He was my mentor and it was a privilege to know him. My heartfelt condolences to the Orr family.

Read today of the passing of Bob. Bob was one of the pillars of the Pioneer chapter of the Oregon Land Surveyors. He was a good friend to many and as I had grown up in La Grande we share much.

I just saw the obituary for your father , Lori Jo. I went to nursing school with you and I am now working in hospice for Providence. I saw your dad's name and was thinking of you and your family. Blessings to you all.

My deepest sympathy to the Orr family. May God strengthen and comfort you.
