Dear Char,
I am very sad to hear of Bob's passing. I just got the news today or I would have attended his funeral. I worked with Bob for many years as one of his customers and always enjoyed his big smile everytime we met. And since Bob has been ill I've missed seeing him in the yard most days when I drive by the house. He will be missed by everyone that knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Bob met this obstacle in his life more positively than anyone I have ever known. He would always look to the future as if he would defeat this disease no matter what. Our Disney talks were always first every time we saw each other every Wednesday at bowling. He will be missed by many.

I knew Bob from my days at Barker Rockford. He was a man of great vision and creativity. Everything was always positive with him. I was very proud to work with him.
God bless him on his eternal journey.

I am so sad to read about this. Bob was a very close personal friend of my grandpas (Ralph Resenbeck). Bob was always a very nice guy and always built the coolest cars! My condolences. ~ Jessica Vance
