Not sure what to say?

Bob was a good neighbor and an interesting man. I was very saddened by his passing, and send my condolences to his family.

So sorry to hear of Bob's tragic passing. He lived a mile down the road from us and we have known him for years. Prayers and thoughts go out to the family at this sad time.

With diesel smoke and taillights fading in the distance, my friend Bob Manning has out-run me once again. God speed Bob to your heavenly destination. Gabriel is your receiver and eternal serenity is your reward. Gonna miss you on the road, at home, in church, attending Stuck to Unstuck, and just sitting in a chair in a room telling your story, ad infinitum.

After many years of being a business associate, Bob will be greatly missed. Although I never had the opportunity to meet him in person, after 15+ years of phone conversations, I had gotten to know him very well, I will cherish his friendship. My deepest sympathy to his family.

Missing You........

Bob was a presence in our lives from when we all lived in Blaine, to now in Arlington, forty some years later. No one enjoyed telling stories more than Bob, and he will be missed. The sound of a big diesel rig, the friendship over coffee or tea and the endless games of Free Cell will ever remind us of him. He left big shoes to be filled!!
