Not sure what to say?

I was so saddened to hear of Dr Bob's passing. Last I talked to him in early February he was so optimistic for his recovery.
I met Dr Bob a few years ago in Clayton on one of his trips to the St Lawrence to ride his Jet Ski ("Boat" as he called it) he was very adventurous and spent hours on the water. I also had the opportunity to meet his family that he always spoke so well of, he was certainly a man to look up to.
I will miss our conversations and have to bear the loss of a good...

I was so fortunate to be able to work with Dr. Bob, and even more lucky to have been able to become a friend! I am so sad to hear that he lost his fight, but I know he is in a happy spot now, watching over us all. He was an amazing dentist, very compationate, and a wonderful co-worker. I will forever remember his kindness and his smile. I regret that we didn't keep in touch very well this past year, and I look forward to seeing him in heaven. God bless you all!

My sympathy goes out to all the family of my friend and classmate from elementary and high school in West Winfield. Bob was the kind of guy who was everyone's friend. Wished I had known him as an adult. He was always one of the "Good Guys".

Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

To the Turner Family,
I would like to express my sympathy for your loss. Bob was a wonderful person. My co-workers and I at the Bluewater Grill considered Bob a friend.We had hoped he would win his fight against cancer and we would see him drive up to the restaurant in his truck.

Words can't express how close we were as teenagers, when we shared a love for cars, lifting weights, rock-n-roll, girls, and all the other things boys and young men dream about.

Dear Dr. Bob's family,
Please know that many of us at the Dinosaur BBQ will miss Dr. Bob. Some times customers become friends, and that is what Dr. Bob was to us. Open mike night will never be the same.
Love,
Dr. Bob's friends at the Dinosaur

To my Dearest Dr. Bob,
It had been since this past summer since I spoke with you last and regret not having spoken to you since.With the everyday hustle and bustle in life we tend to put things off that we know deep down we shouldnt but take for granted that there will be time another day....Shame on me! You were so very special to me Dr. Bob, and I am sooo happy that I had the oppurtunity to not only work by your side as an assistant but to have you as a teacher. You have taught me so...
