Not sure what to say?

I was honored to speak at Bob´s Union Pacific retirement party and share some memories of his years on the job. Aside from his employment stories, his older sister came up to me after I spoke and related to me about Bob when he was 4 or 5 years old. It seems Bob liked to run off when no was watching him and his mom got so exasperated that she decided to outfit him in a dress thinking he´d be too embarrassed to be seen wearing it and would stay home. I wish she would have shared that story...

I remember Bob and Velma when first married. Great couple. Velma was my Bible School teacher. They loved The Lord. Ken potts

I am very sorry to hear of Bob's death. I always enjoyed him and his love for the Lord. Also, Velma you were one of my favorite Bible school teachers. Kenny Potts

Worked several years with Bob on the railroad. He was one of the nicest persons you'll ever meet, always had a smile and good things to say about people. He was a very religious man but would never pushed his beliefs on others, only offered guidance if you asked. Rest in peace buddy.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

We are saddened to hear this. He was a Great Man! A joy to talk to and visit with. Our thoughts and Prayers are with you all. RIP Uncle Bob
