Robert your flowers are beautiful. Emma spent a lot of time growing them for you. I am now cultivating them for both of you at your former home in Arlington TX--- Norm McDowell

Dear Emma and family,
I was so sad to hear of your loss. Bob was such a sweet person and I have many fond memories of the kindness you showed to everyone.

To Mrs. Colburn, Bobby and Brian: I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad. I remember how welcoming all of you were when I came to this country. Your Dad always had a smile on his face, and truly he was a wonderful man. God Bless You All.

I am so sorry to hear of Bob's death, I am so glad that we were able to see him over the summer. You all hold such a special place in my heart and always will. You are all in my prayers at this time. Allow God to hold you close to Him and carry you through. I will always remember Bob with a smile on his face. What precious memories I have growing up on Glynn Oaks and so many stories to tell my kids.
In Christ love,

Emma, Dorothy, and family, I was so sorry to hear about the passing of Bobby.

Each of you are in my thoughts and prayers, even though I cannot be with you at this time.

Love, Nell Ruth

Dear Emmy and Family,
We were saddened to hear that, our dear neighbor and friend, is no longer here with us..But during the time he was, he was a joyful addition in our lives and will always be..And now we sing, What a glorious day it will be, for us all, as The Roll Is Called Up Yonder we will be there, seeing Bob again, some sweet day..
Below is a poem which we were given when our daughter, Vicki,also went home to be with the Lord. It was so comforting and assuring to us as...

Bob was a really good neighbor and friend that we will never forget.The good times we spent watching our families grow up will always be cherished.Bob was always ready to help you no matter what. He was the early riser in the neighborhood--walking and picking up cans--maybe washing his car/pick-up--then off to play ball.
We cherish the thirty plus years we had Bob as a good neighbor.
Our sympathy to the entire family.
