Not sure what to say?

This message is long overdue. I didn't know Bob very well, but as the widow of Guy D Parr, I know that he was an honest and good businessman. My husband bought several cars and trucks from him through the years. My father in law did also. He did a lot to make Shelbyville a nice town. I am back in California now, but I have fond memories of small town living. I know you must miss him, but he is not suffering and in peace.M

I will always remember the first time I met Bob Boarman, from that day on I never had my vehicles serviced anywhere else. His legacy continues to live on through his children! Good people!!!

My deepest sympathy toRob, Ed and Jodi and Bob's family. He loved people and cars. My husband loved to stop and visit Bob when we were in Shelbyville. No doubt, he had many friends and was loved by his family, he will be missed by many. I'm so sorry. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers. May God give you all the strength you shall need to get through the difficult days ahead.

Bob will be missed by me and many others. He was always smiling when I would see him when having my vehicles serviced. He took me through his antique car show room a couple of times and I loved hearing his stories about each car. He is with the love of his life....I remember his eyes tearing up when he told be a story about he and Pam taking a road trip in one of the antique cars and how pretty she looked in that car. He is with her again and forever now. My love and condolences to all...

My condolences on the loss of your father. The Parr family did a lot of business with Bob over the years. He was quite a salesman and a boon to the city.
