Robert Ozment

Aw, I am just seeing this. I loved him so much as a child. He was our God Father... to Jenny and Bobby McIlwain. We referred to them as Uncle Bob and Aunt Arah. I remember times at their house in Marietta and the peacocks and sitting in his office watching him work. I got my first scar from jumping over the fence when Arah and I were in the yard together and to this day, when I see it, I smile! His voice was gentle, his spirit was kind. We attended his church with my parents, Bob and...

On behalf of the children, staff and Trustees of The Methodist Home for Children and Youth, we offer our sincere and heartfelt condolences. May the peace and presence of God be near today and in the days ahead.

My association with Dr. Bob was in our latter years after his wife had passed away. It was a late in life friendship, but was enduring and memorable. He was one of the kindest an most friendly persons that I have ever met. I only knew him personally for about ten years but knew of him about 45 years since being associated with Beech Creek UMC. Dr. Bob will be missed.
