My sincere sympathy to his family in your loss of Bob. We worked together at Smith's and were good friends. A special memory is of the delicious cookies he liked to make and bring to work and share with us! He was a very special person.

Four Generations: Bob Chandler with son Richard, grandson Isaac, great grandson James and great granddaughter Marissa

I am one of the 12 grandchildren. Grandpa Chandler loved all of his family very much and was very loved. He always came to family gatherings and especially loved to see his grandchildren and great grandchildren. Grandpa will be missed very much.

Sincerely,

6/2/10 To Jim & family. So sorry to read about Bob in the Obits. We've all

& to Bob's family, as well. Hopefully, we can get in touch one of these
days. Sincerely, Ethelyn Barnum Robinson (am in the phone book).
