JO ANN AND FAMILY
I WAS SO SAD TO HEAR OF YOUR LOSS.BOB WAS MY BUDDY ALL THROUGH SCHOOL,AND HE TAUGHT ME TO DRIVE. HE AND THE BOYS ALSO CAME UP TO WHITE GATE TO
WALK THE SWINGING BRIDGE SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE MANY FOND
MEMORIES OF HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE OF HIM.HE TRULY SET A
POSITIVE EXAMPLE EVERYDAY FOR
HIS STUDENTS-BEING NOT ONLY A
TEACHER AND COACH, BUT A FRIEND.
I WILL MISS HIM.

Dear Price Family,
My heart was saddened to hear of the passing of Coach Price. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.
I was lucky enough to have played for Coach in 1968-69 and honored to be one of his team captains my senior year.
I did not realize at the time, but he was teaching us about life and not just how to win football games. Thanks for making me a better person Coach, and may peace be with your family.

Susan,and family Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during your grief may your memories bring you and you family comfort.Karen Lucas Hale and The Lucas Family.

I want to extend my sympathies to the Price family. Mr Price was a man of integrity and conviction. He was my driver's ed teacher in high school and even in that capacity, he was such an influential person. I am sure he made an impact on many students and people he came in contact with during his lifetime. He will be missed but not forgotten.

Dear Price Family,
Toni and I were just discussing the time when Mr. Price was her behind-the-wheel teacher and he would let her drive up Wolf Creek every morning at 7:00 am just so she could ride by my house. She thinks he was awful brave to make that trip every morning. We have been married for 25 years and that is one of the most precious memories for Toni. He was a great man and we are so sorry for your loss. May God keep you in His care and bless each one of you.

We are so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. Actually, I find it hard, even after 45 years to refer to him as 'Bob': to me he will always be 'Coach Price'. I was lucky enough to play for Coach Price in 1963-1965. I'll always remeber those days and how much I learned from him - not just about football, but about being a better person. Coach Price always put character above winning, and I'll always be grateful for the qualities he instilled in all his players - qualities of sportsmanship,...

We were sorry to hear about Bob and are thinking of you with sympathy. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Even though I didn't see much of Bob after moving to the Tidewater Area to teach, he was one of my favorite cousins. I always enjoyed visiting with his family while growing up in Pembroke, and it saddens me to hear that he has passed. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Jo Anne and Family,
My life is richer having known Bob Price, my neighbor, teacher, coach, and friend. He had a way about him of making everyone around him feel extremely comfortable.
I know he has left a positive impact on many of the lives he has touched.
May each of you find peace in the coming days.
