Not sure what to say?

Bob was my husbands best friend when in HHS in Hastings. He was our best man in our wedding, so many years ago. His picture is in our family room in a hutch in our wedding picture. He will always be very special to us and have a special place in my heart. I remember his wife Carol very much, as we both grew up in Spencer Park. I remember her getting on the school bus taking us to HHS and me to STC. I lost my husband 22 years ago this July. There are so many memories I can relate to. ...

Will never forget Bob. He was best man in our wedding. I have a picture of Bob and my husband taken at a class reunion in my wall unit. Danny & Bob were best of friends. Of course I have our wedding picture displayed also with Bob in it. I can never forget him. You were lucky to have had him as long as you did. Such a nice guy. I lost Danny at age 65. I'm hoping they are having a reunion all of their own. God Bless 2 good men.

To all of Bob's family my condolences. Bob gave me an opportunity 30 years ago to subcontract to Paulsen Construction. Since that time I have raised 4 children and continued with highway seedings around the state. I have always appreciated what he told me when I signed the first contract. "If you want the work and will do the work sign it and we will help you. Sign it and don't do the work and there isn't anything in that contract that will help you!"
I am truly saddened by his passing,...
