Bob was my EFM mentor for four years, and he lived in Macon (my home town) for many years, so I had many opportunities to get to know Bob in various groups. Bob was simply a great guy - solid - fun - kind and helpful - reliable - just the kind of person you liked to be around. He (and his puns) will be sorely missed! My love and sympathy to Joy and all his family - May God send you peace and comfort in the times to come.

My heartfelt prayers for comfort and peace are with Bob's family and close friends. It was truly a blessing to have known him for even a few short months. In Christ, we have a blessed hope of seeing him again, in a Land where there is no sickness, nor sorrow.

Father Bob was always smiling and always there when he was needed when he was a Chaplain at the Med. He was with my family when my Mother died. He was loved by the staff and patient alike.
RIP, Fr Bob!

Many people in Macon, GA are thinking about and praying for you Joy and Family. Father Bob was such a sweet soul and always had a smile for you. He was loved by so many people at MCCG/Atrium Health, both patients and hospital staff. I treasure the memories of a weekend I and friends spent with you and Bob, sitting on your porch looking at those beautiful mountains. It was a heavenly scene. Please know you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Hilda Hilliard

Father Bob was always a bright light when I worked with him in Macon. He came and prayed (and told several jokes) with me on several occasions, including when I was in labor with my sons. I know that we hadn’t kept in touch well, but I’ll never forget having dinner together after I moved to Blairsville. Joy, your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Joy you and the family are in my thoughts and prayers. Father Bob was so special. He was with me during one of my darkest hours. He was a ray of sunshine and I loved his daily jokes! There is no doubt where he now resides! RIP Father Bob

Precious Bob is all healed now, but he is leaving a bunch of people saddened by his absence from our presence. I dearly loved him. Peace and comfort to all the actual family, and to our St. Clare's family. He is missed already.
