One of the nicest man I have ever met! Although i have only known Bob for a few years, Iam truly blessed and thankful that I met him. He always welcomed me with a warm smile. I always looked forward on our talks in the morning sitting by his pool. Such a great sense of humor. He was very kind and loving and I always looked up to him like he is my grand father. I will surely miss him. My deepest sympathy to Nita,Kim and family.

Dear Bob,
You're one of the greatest men I know. You were always nice, loving, happy. Your presence filled a room and always a delight to talk to. Your most enduring quality in my eyes was your love for the Lord. On that faithful morning, I know without a doubt in my soul, you were taken to be with our father in heaven. Miss you and keep a seat reserved for me.

With all the love in the world,

Emmanuel J. Burrell
