Thinking of you Barbara and your family, at this time of my mom's passing. She would have liked to have known that this opportunity was available to her. So on behalf of Audrey Cynthia Holman Mills McGrew, I send my deepest condolences! If you get this message I am trying to reach you, today is March 26th, 2018.

I will always remember Bob for his warm and happy smile. He was so kind hearted and one of Joe's favorite relatives. We always enjoyed visits with Bob and Barbara. Heaven must be even brighter with Joe and Bob together again!
