Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Bob's passing and I am so sad he is no longer with us...Barb, my deepest sympathies. Bob was so wise and so willing to share his knowledge and wisdom with me when I was advocating for various local issues. He was one of my rocks to lean upon...gosh I'll miss him.

Barb and family, I am so, so sorry to hear about Bob passing. He was very special to our family. Mom thought of him as brother not a cousin. I'm at a loss to express my feelings but I know Mom will be there to welcome him with open arms when they see each other.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Our son, Jeff, and his friend Ken Girten worked for Bob many years ago. He was their first construction employer who they often remember in family conversations. God Bless.

Barb, so sorry for your loss. I know he filled your life with happiness.

Recently, while traveling, I learned of Bob's death. I knew him as a good neighbor, old friend, and a dedicated member of the Drainage District commission, but Ray Brownfield has relayed to me the real story of Bob's heroic service to our county. It is always sad when such a precious human being dies. I send you and your family my sympathy. Bob's death is truly a loss to our country, his family, and all of us who knew him.

Sincerely, John Goddard
