I first met Bob Lukenbaugh as a young child in Enid, Oklahoma. We lived next door to his mother-in-law on Elm Street and we were friends with his daughter, Robin. I have memories of all the children riding go-carts in the streets of Enid as well as some sort of metal mini rollercoaster in their backyard. He was a great man-always friendly and kind.

My many prayers goes out to you, Mary Etta and family. My dear friend Bob was such an interesting person. Ray and I cherished our friendship over the years. Thinking of you, Love, Fern
