Oh, Becky, how sad we felt when we saw Bob's smiling face in the paper. It seems like such a short time ago that we were all young and relatively carefree. He was a wonderful man and great addition to the life of those around him.
May sweet peace carry you through and the blessings of God pour down upon you and those cute kids.
Love,
