Not sure what to say?

I was one of the in home caregivers for Lee after she had the stroke. I was amazed by both Lee & Bob´s fascinating life and their love for one another. I left Colorado Springs 2 years ago and I was curious if Lee was doing better so I googled their names and sadden to see both have passed. Even in the terrific shape Bob was in the last time I saw him, he couldn´t live without his bride. May they both Rest In Peace.

Robert and his wife Lee were great friends to our daughter Rebecca and we are sad to learn of his death. They were faithful friends to the end of her life. We also felt a deep friendship with both of them. God bless each of you, their family, in your grief.

His class was one of the hardest I've ever taken, but his patience and sense of humor got us through. He will be missed. He's definitely touched a lot of people.

As a former student, Bob Durham was a major contributor to my academic experience and success. I benefited from participation in the UCCS Psychology Honors program in the mid 70's. He was challenging and inspirational mentor.

I was a student of Bob's many years ago. He was inspiring, supportive, fascinating and entertaining. Bob was a wealth of information, a terrific professor and always encouraging. He is remembered fondly by many of his students.

Uncle Bob will be missed...but, knowing he is with Auntie Lee makes it little bit easier to grieve...May you dance a jig FOREVER!!!
