Not sure what to say?

Bobby and I went to camp riley for many years. I also knew donnie. We had great times together. I have thought about him often. He was a great guy. I am sorry for ur loss. I just lost my husband last year. I was looking at some pictures I took down at camp and so many of the ones r gone but not forgotten. I was younger then him but we got along really well.

Dear Beth, I am sorry I could not attend Bob's funeral. I just was not up to it. I thought a lot of Bob. He would bring his grandson to Meijers for juice and donuts every week, and that is how I got to know him. He was so kind and easygoing, with a great smile and laugh. I am glad John went as I wanted him to. We are praying for your health. I hope you can drive before too long. What a tragic loss. May our Lord be with you and help to heal your body as well as your emotions. God is with you...

We always knew we'd find a smiling encouraging friend when we saw Bob. Whether we met him at school, worked with or for him, or saw him out in the community at a chance encounter. His jovial spirit lives on.....as does Spot!

i enjoyed working with Bob at KSH for many years. Also shared listening to your choral concerts at the Methodist church with him. So sorry for your loss.

We are so sorry to hear this. Bob was a good friend at coffee at Meijers. We were so sorry that the accident happened. Hopefully, we will see him in Heaven.

Dear Beth &Family, I am so very sorry for your loss. I share your pain. Please know that I am thinking of you and keeping you in prayer. I remember Bob being in my class that I taught at Mission u, several years ago. Take care, stay well and hold tight to your wonderful memories. Love & Blessings, Phyllis Jackson

He was always so kind and had a contagious smile. We loved joking about "Row the Boat" and Bob Knight. He watched me grow up and he made this world a happier place. He´s one I always think of when Indiana sports are on. Rest easy, sir. Hopefully you get a chance to chat with Bobby Knight and get some of his gameday insights. Thanks for bringing a smile to the faces of many and making this world a happier place. You won´t be forgotten.
