Not sure what to say?

I will be missing Bob on Thanksgiving my girls and I got to spend Thanksgiving with he and his daughter, and even though she was not feeling good she came out to eat with us.....

So sorry for your loss I had the pleasure of spending a lot of time with Bob along with my daughter's Rita and Gabby he loved being around them and Did many nice things for our family he will be missed!

To the family, you have my sincere condolences. When someone falls asleep in death (Ecclesiastes 9: 5,10) the memories we have of them become our most precious treasure. May those memories comfort you as well as Gods promise at John 6:40.

My deepest sympathy to a great guy. My husband Glen, an ex-marine also, double dated with Bob and his two daughters Cindy and Debby with Diane Alfino and Mary Ellen Alfino at the Loretto father-daughter banquets. He had fond memories of that as well as fond memories of Bob's sense of humor. May he Rest In Peace.

My Dad, Gene Murray, loved Bob and was a close friend of his. So glad donations will go to the American Legion transportation for vets. Their new van picked up my Dad in the last week of his life and Dad rode in the new veterans van in the Miami Co. parade in 2015. Dad loved it. My husband and I took Dad, Bob, Dick and a few other of their friends for a Veterans Day breakfast a few years ago. So honored to do so. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a good one!

We are so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with your family at this time of sorrow.
