Not sure what to say?

Mr. Toomey was unlike any other dad growing up. He actually did things with his girls and their friends. I remember loving the fact that we had all those slumber parties in the basement and playing hide and seek upstairs. I remember trips to the beach, good chicken salad sandwiches, and Mr. Toomey taking us into the water to swim and throw us around. He was a great and loving man. He was like a big teddy bear. I will forever be grateful for knowing him. My prayers go up for you Mrs....

Grandpa was a great guy to hang around with...loved to laugh and joke around...and have a good time. Lots of memories include him and things he taught me and showed me about life. We'll miss you dearly! Love you forever...

Uncle Bob was such a likeable guy and always so bubbly and full of life. We remember seeing him on the beach and watching him accept his swimsuit competition award at the family reunion laughing until we nearly cried. Because of Uncle Bob and Aunt Helen, we have a beautiful "helicopter" tree in our yard. Each time the wind blows, we will be reminded of how much we loved and thought of him and also to keep his family in our thoughts and prayers. God bless us all and God bless Uncle...

I will miss Mr.Toomey... I could always count on him and Ms Helen when Grand mama and Papa were out of town... He was always ready with a big smile and a hug!!! He will be missed dearly!!

My Grandpa was a great person. Was there to help us no matter what. Whether to learn to drive a stick shift, make banana & peanut butter sandwiches, tell us his childhood stories, help us build a tree house & move it next door, etc...He was always there. He would always want a hug & a "I love you". We'll miss him!!

so very sorry Aunt Helen. My heart goes out to you and the girls. But Uncle Bob was his own man. Very Special.
He loved everyone,and everyone loved him.
He was so very special,He loved my daughter like she was his own. that is just how he was.God bless you Uncle Bob.
God also Bless Aunt Helen and the girls at this time of sorrow.
You will all be in my Heart and my Prayers.
Love to you all, Yvonne Wright,

I will miss Uncle Bob dearly. I thank Uncle Bob and Aunt Helen for taking me in as one of their own. I knew from day one that everything that came from Aunt Helen's mouth came by way of Uncle Bob. Believe me, Aunt Helen had a lot to say to me. I had to get in line quick.

I have a lot of fond memories of Uncle Bob. He taught us girls how to change the oil in a car, change a tire, because, he said, one day you might need to know these things. Of course, he was correct. We cut...

I am so sorry that this has happened to you and the girls.My heard just breaks for you and I will continue to pray for you. I will not be able to be there I will still be at work.

Our love to yu and the girls,
Lynn and Leah Davis

I have many fond memories of Bob, as he came into my life at a very early age. Mrs. Helen used to babysit me and my brother and sister. Bob was the first man I ever knew that built his own house. I pray for Mrs Helen, and the girls in their loss, but know that Bob is in a place much nicer than here, and we will all see him again one day.
