Dear Gail:

We've had you and your family on our minds a lot and pray that you're all doing well.

To lose a loved one is never easy and especially in a family so devoted to each other.

Although Bob and I only saw or spoke to each other infrequently I thought of him often. I

have many happy, and even sometimes funny memories of our growing up...

Gail, Paula, Darryl, Allison and your families. Our hearts ache with you and we think of you constantly. Know that we are here for each of you in anything we can do. Much love, Cal and Margaret

My Papa was a great man. He was strong in character and that has shown through to me. Over the years he has supported me in my endeavors and I thank him for that. I love and miss him very much.

Bob is an inspiration to me whether it was during his life or the memories that I have know. I was fortunate enough to be able to appreciate the craftsman toil at his craft. I thought of a movie character who shares many of the same good attributes that I saw in Bob which I referred to him as Yoda. Yoda master Jedi. This term is because of his excellence and ability to teach a strong work ethic with integrity just by his actions alone Thank you Yoda for teaching me.

Paula,

My sympathies to you and your family on the death of your father. I know it's very painful. My father died almost 6 years ago. I have fun memories of visiting your home when I was a child. Your parents made a very fun home to visit. May God be a comfort to all of you. LuAnne (Alderson) Plugge

Great guy, very quiet.
