Not sure what to say?

Sorry for your loss i knew him when i was growing up i am susan (ward) newcomb.. praying for your family

Sorry to hear about your husband/dad. I remember a trip to Canada in the trailer. Bob pointed out a stream that ran up instead of down (something to do with gravity at the spot we were in). I never really understood, but it was really neat to see. He was a wonderful friend to my dad, and always willing to share his tools and knowledge with others. We will all miss him.

Your dad was a truly selfless human being. The soft spoken Fixit Neighbor helped my mom and dad too many times to count (and came to my rescue on a frigid wintry day to help me with my snow blower). He will forever live remain a fond memory for me.

Mr. Flanders (Bob) was a wonderful person. I am very saddened to hear of his passing. I will miss our discussions about the latest and greatest electronics and other topics. He will be missed by many.

An amazing man who was responsible for my interest in Hee Haw, camping and riding mopeds! I will think of him when I see and do many things, and particularly when I hear the song "The Cat Came Back"! He will be greatly missed.

So sorry to hear about your dad I remember him fondly. It is comforting to know he is not suffering and at peace.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
