God bless you all.

Pastor Bob and Joyce were such a neat couple. Enjoyed his sermons as he ministered to Bauer CRC in his later years. Always left food for thought. You always felt like he was interested in you. Will remember them both for their smiles, and joyful personalities. Rejoicing with you, that even in sorrow at their passing ,their faith in Jesus as Savior and Lord guided them to their eternal home and comforts you
