Robert D. Love

Dear Loves & Elders,
It has been a few months since this loss and still the world presses on. It's God's way of saying, "It's well..." My funniest memory of Mr. Love was a day that I wore a short skirt to work. He pulled me aside and said, "You don't have to wear such clothing to do work in this company." He even offered to lend me some money to go purchase new clothes. He respectfully and gently passed on a sense of value - as he did in SO many other lives. His deep belief in my...

Dear Lil, Randy, Bobby, Becky, Nancy, Phil and kids -

My family gives each of you our sympathy and prayers during this trying time. God Bless.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to the Love and Elder Families. Bob Love was one of a kind. I remember the Christmas Partys at the plant when I was a kid and seeing the "real" Santa Claus. I know my dad, Bill Souter, was so proud to work for Mr. Love. The family atmosphere he fostered was so much appreciated. My family can not thank the Love and Elder family enough for what they did for my dad before he passed away. The pease of mind they gave him was tremendous. We can not thank...

Dear Love and Elder Families,
I just learned of Bob's transfer to Glory. I share in your sense of loss and grief while knowing he is in a better place, the best place.
Words are certainly inadequate to convey my admiration and affection for Bob. In my book Bob is on the same page as other great and noble pioneers who did what was right regardless of the consequences. Few today love freedom as much as Bob did. His legacy will live on for generations and for that I am thankful....

See a man who is diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings: he shall not stand before mean men. Proverbs 22:29

To quote Ralph Waldo Emerson: "To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded." For sure ... Bob Love.

Dear Love Family...
What can I say about a man who had such a tremendous impact on my life and that of so many. His faith in God and his passion for men to be free was instilled in us from early on. I remember often those FEE seminars and the life changing week spent (at Bob's expense) in Wichita attending the Le Favre courses in free thought.
Bob's legacy lives on as I have taught my children these ideas in freedom and when they are older, will teach my grandchildren the same....

We were so saddened to learn of the death of Bob. Although we have not been in touch for some time, we always recall Bob with great affection. His memory has stayed with us over the years, as has his generosity to the YMCA, among many other causes. Our thoughts and prayers are extended to his family and friends.

I have many good memories of my days at Love Box Company. Mr. Love was the greatest leader of people I've ever known. I am grateful for the opportunity to have known him. There was something about him that made me want to do my best. My thoughts, prayers, and sympathies go to the Love family.
