I am so proud to have known "Grandpa". I first met him about 10 yrs ago through his grandson Anthony. Unfortunately, I regret to say that life happens and I became distant in the years to follow. Luckily, my son and I were fortunate enough to be reunited with him in the last year. It was through that time that I really had the chance to get to know him. I loved staying up late at night with him listening to the stories of his life, and WOW did he have a life! Having him stand over me while...

Bob, you were a great person, and a loving friend. I wish we could have done more for you, but from all your great stories, even you must have felt you have lived a very wonderful life. You are well loved and we will miss you very much. I regret not taking you up sooner on the fishing, but we can do that when we meet again. Best wishes to Betty, I know your heart aches, bob is gone from our life right now, but never far from our hearts.

Herb and I enjoyed being around Bob. Bob loved to go fishing and would take even the smallest crappie to make fish gravy. Bob was always friendly and enjoyed talking to everyone. He was definitely a good friend, always there for others. Bob was very proud of his family. He always had something witty to say. He was always taking care of others. He paid special attention to his elders and ensured that they were taken care of. Bob could sit on his boat for hours fishing even enjoying it when the...

The world will be short an angel now that Bob is gone. Words cannot express my sympathy to the family. Betty, I know that you are hurting right now but remember that you have children to lean on. Doug, be strong even when you do not think you can. Your Mom needs your strength right now. Tamara and Traci hold your heads high. You will get through this. Be proud of your husband and father because he was a great man. Amy Freeman (Herbert)
