Uncle Bob... I'm glad I was able to talk to you on the phone just a few days ago. I will always look back on the time we spent together as a child and then again when you moved to Wisconsin. Glad we could always talk about computers together. I miss you.

I was very surprised to read of Bob's passing! I remember that I had met him at least once. It will be difficult at first. With time, things will get better. God bless all of you.

I am sorry to hear of your passing. My sympathy is with all of your family who loved you. I vaguely remember the Wisconsin house when we visited with your Uncle Bob and Aunt Nita when I was a very young child. May you rest in peace.
