Not sure what to say?

To Dr. Bob's family;
I'm so sorry for your loss, a great and kind man who has done so much for so many. We lived on Monroe Avenue in Hammond with the Rubright family in the late 1950's and early 60's. I remember playing with Davey, especially, because we were the same age. I also remember Diana and Donny and a make shift parade down Monroe on July 4th with decorated bikes and wagons. The good old days. You were so fortunate to have such loving and hardworking parents. By the accolades...

Dr. Bob, my cousin Edwena's husband, will be missed by many. My condolences to his family and friends everywhere.

To the family of Dr. Rubright

But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven...

We will miss Doc . He was a true friend, for many years and we have wonderful memories.
