Not sure what to say?

Bob and I went to SRHS at the same time. He worked for Dennis Close Body Shop on Francisco Blvd. when I worked for Doug Dicker Sport Car Center. Bob will be missed by all who knew him.

Bob and I went to San Rafael High together. Last time that I saw him, he was working at a body shop neat where I was working. I was working as a car salesman at Doug Dicker Sports Car Center. Bob will be missed by all who knew him. May he always sleep the sleep of peace.

I sometimes think about the way Bob would made a room brighter and make me smile. He will never be forgotten and always have a special place in my heart. A true friend.

My cousin Bob - a gentle giant, kind and loving soul. He had the best of the Krantz personality and the best of the Peterson personality all rolled up into one. He never missed an event in my life. He was there for my Kindergarten graduation, my jr. high graduation and my high school graduation. The joy that he personified was infectious. His Santa laughter was so awesome. This man was an inspiration to me and helped shape and mold my life into what it is today. His heart was bigger...

Bob was one of the best cousins in the world. Utterly loyal to his family, he was so generous. His friends probably say the same about him, but he was MY big cousin, and I always looked up to him. I'll always be grateful that he and Sherral drove miles and miles out of their way to come visit us, when we lived no where near the rest of the family. It didn't hurt that there was a pie shop along the way. He was a true prince among men.

This lit candle Symbolizes how Bob lit up everyone's life that he ever came in contact with and if more people could be like Bob Krantz then the world definitely would be a better place to live in ! ❣

Sherral, I'm so sorry for your loss. Bob was a good man, and the rock of the family in California. We are grateful for his care of Auntie Alta and for his visits and calls to Aunt Carol. I miss him. Uncle Gordon in MN.

Sherral, you and Bob are so special to me. Always there for my kids and I at school for many years. Bob helped me in so many ways, always with a smile. You are in my thoughts forever.

Sherral, I want you to know how sorry I am for your loss of this wonderful man. Bob was just a delight to know and someone who was always there for you. My deepest sympathy goes out to you at this sad time.
