Brenda and Family: What a great guy and man Bob was. Always having a huge smile on this face and telling jokes that we would all laugh at even if I didn't understand. Not only a family friend but banking buddy too! His photo is so perfect and with great love to your family, Mary Phillips Saieed and Steve Saieed

We are so sorry to hear of Bobs passing. Please know that your family is in our hearts and prayers. Please convey our sincere sympathy to the family.

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss. I worked with Bob for many years when he was in Cumberland. I don't think I ever saw him without a smile. He was always very kind and a gentleman.

Bob Boxley will always be remembered as a dear friend, a close neighbor, a welcomed conversationalist, a patriot, and a man always with a smile and a sense of humor, a man who appreciated military service, and one you could not help but love. We knew he loved his family; he often went out of his way to sing their praises. Bob will be sadly missed.

We are in Mexico and very sorry that we cannot be with Brenda and the family to offer our condolences in person. Our prayers are with...

I met Bob about two years ago at the Cape Fear Model Railroad Society and soon we became friends. I always enjoyed talking with him and exchanging model train stories. He would often share with me other tales about some of his past ventures and adventures. His stories always made me smile at least, but usually he made me laugh. He was a good man and quite a character. I wish I could have known him longer. He will be missed.

Like Bob I was born in West Virginia and am a member of the Little Chapel on the Boardwalk. Because I lived in northern WV, my husband and I spent many hours in Pittsburgh, PA for sports and cultural events. I would like to extend my sincere sympathy to Brenda and the rest of Bob's wonderful family. Elizabeth "Libby" Frye

Peaceful Passage Arrangement

Bob was an awesome person! I knew him through his love for bicycles. I am so glad Bob and I crossed paths in life, he was truly a great person and always fun to talk story with. He will be missed, Jim Mincher
