Not sure what to say?

I would like to say that Toon Funeral Home was always my favorite. It is very "homey". And Robert Dore's wake was very nice. He was a wonderful man. Always nice to the neighborhood kids (I was one of them).

I will miss Bob very much, especially during the swimming season. Bob was a fixture at the Hobson pool, and was known by name by every person at the pool. We always new Bob was in the water by the red baseball cap he wore while swimming. He told everyone we were the Big Three at the pool. Bob was the captain, myself, and Jack Suchs. We will miss you Bob.

The Big Two

I did't know Robert personally, but I've heard about him from Bob's girlfriend Sally. I have been praying for him since August, but now my prayers will be for Lorraine and the rest of her family. If you look to God he will give you the comfort, courage, and strength to make it through this rough time.

My sympathy goes out to the family. My Uncle Emil & Aunt Rose always spoke highly of your family. I remember how Uncle Emil always called you his buddy and proudly talked about Tom when he was playing ball in High School. My sincerest thoughts are with the family.
