Dear Norma,
We would like to express our deepest sympathy for your loss.
We have so many fond memories of gatherings with you and Bob at Lake Michigan,
as well as in Sarasota. You always were very entertaining with funny stories and good laughs.
We only remember the good times.
Our thoughts are with you.

Dear BooBoo and Norma,
Although I have many wonderful (some scarey) "high school" memories of Bob, one that really stands out among the others is when "Mister" Semeyn had to chase away all the boys at Wolf Lake in his scivvies (that was one of the scarey ones). Oh my!
He was so funny, amazing, smart, and down-to-earth and I know in my heart he will be with you ALWAYS.
Love,
Sue

Dear Norma and Beth, I am so sorry for you loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I know that David and Kathy were there to greet him. I just hope the Lord is ready for Bob and Petey being together again. God Bless you all in your time of great loss. Much love to you.
Judy Warncke (Van Dam) and family.

Norma and Bethie -

We are so sorry for your loss but so very lucky to have known Honeypot. He was the best and will be greatly missed.

Aunt Norma and Beth,
We are saddened to here this news. I (Gary) will keep the memories of those summers of my youth, dirt biking and fishing with Dave and Bob at the lake. His practical outlook at life and silly jokes are a part of me.
Love,
Gary and Robin Meyer

Aunt Norma and Beth,

I am sorry to hear the news. It's hard to believe that such a mischievous and infectious laugh has left. I remember so clearly how eagerly Uncle Bob approached life's tasks, especially the fun ones. Whether on a boat, a motorcycle, behind a fishing pole or a tennis racket, he was always willing to take you along for the ride, of course preferring to out-do you (and usually succeeding), but also generous enough to celebrate the effort when the fun was done. ...
