I knew Bob for over 50 years. He was a wonderful friend and even though we didn't see each other often in later years, I always knew he was there for me. He was particularly gracious and kind after my wife passed away. Rest in peace Bob.

Sorry to hear of your family's lost. The Bible tells us Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you. One of the principal ways to draw close to God is thorough prayer. Do not underestimate its value!
