Not sure what to say?

My deepest sympathy. I am a Home Health Nurse for Marion General Hospital and had the opportunity to visit Robert in his home after prior illnesses. What a gentleman! I enjoyd our visits. God bless you all!

Bob was a great friend and mentor. He was always willing to talk about our love of magic. He will be greatly missed by all those he touched.

I can see Bob now entertaining all his friends in Heaven with his magic. I know he will be missed by many, especially by his faithful friend Norma Jacob. May God wrap his arms around you at this time.

Bob was/is the blue print for how a man or woman should behave. He was a great guest on radio, and there are few of those. He stuck with friends through thick and thin. He was one of the very best! I will miss him.

Bob, you were the perfect gentleman. It was always a pleasure to visit with you while in Marion.

You were like a second father to me, Bob. Thank you for your trust and confidence in me and for sharing your many talents with my family for many years. You were the consummate gentleman. Thank you for all you did for my mother and the love and joy the two of you shared. Mom, Sue, Kate, Austin, and I will truly miss you.

Bob will be greatly missed. He was our friend and my political supporter.

Our extended families will miss this fine gentleman. He thrilled our children and grandchildren with his magic. We enjoyed having Ethel and Bob as guests at our home many times for family dinners. We all felt they were part of our family! They both were outstanding individuals.
