Not sure what to say?

The kindness and gentle soul I ever met. You´re missed!

Bob was the most wonderful pal. He made dog walking in Rose Park such a pleasure. With his beloved labs at his side and seemingly endless supply of dog treats in both pockets, he was loved by all. I too think of him every Christmas as I hang his wooden ornament on my tree.. a Golden with a feather in its mouth. Bob made the world a kinder place. God speed

My mom used to work for Mr Mangrum, I have known him for a short period of time but he has helped me and my family countless of times. We are very grateful for having known such a wonderful and loving person. I used to walk maggie, was very fond of her and was sad when she passed. He consoled me by giving me a stuffed Labrador to remember her by. I will always remember him with respect and admiration for being such a genuine and generous person. Thank you Mr Mangrum.

I worked for Bob years ago before I retired. He was the most generous and kind loving person I have ever met. He loved all his dogs and cats. I am sad to see him go, but he is in Gods loving hands now. May God give him the best place in heaven. He will be missed.

My heart goes out to Charles, Barbara and any and all family members. I only had the pleasure of being in Bob's company on a few occasions - he was wonderfully delightful in every instance. Some people just make you smile both inside and out. With my heart felt every good wish to all have suffered this grievous loss.

Bob was my dog walking buddy for years on our "late night" walks each evening. We would laugh and gossip about the latest neighborhood news. He always had treats in his pockets for the dogs and a sly and funny comment ready. He was the snappiest dresser and most elegant gentleman I ever knew. I will miss him dearly.

I worked with Bob years ago at Seyfarth Shaw and he was a great guy with an infectious laugh. Really smart lawyer, great taste and a soft heart - particularly for his dog that he used to feed McDonald's burgers to on his rides to and from Rehoboth. Upon her birth, Bob gave our daughter Maggie a small, stuffed bear for her first Christmas which adorns our tree each year - and we always look forward to hanging it, thinking of him. God speed Bob Mangrum!

Bob was a neighbor in Rehoboth Beach, living across from my mother's residence. My entire family grew very fond of Bob and we spent many a night at dinner, visiting and talking across the road as he walked his beloved labs and rescue dogs. Bob was a very dear gentleman who leaves an indelible impression. It was our very pleasure to call him a family friend. He will be missed but remembered with great fondness.

Bob was my uncle and a compassionate man. He was such a kind, gentle person who carried himself with true class. He could always make me smile. His ambition and love of life was truly admirable. I will miss him greatly.
Love,
Leigh
