Amanda you are in my thoughts and prayers. I am so sorry for your loss. Bob always had a smile on his face and a positive thought in his head. I always loved when you guys would come to the dental office for a visit. Bob had a warm and caring attitude about everything. He will be greatly missed by all.

My condolences to Bob's family and all who knew him. I met him back in the days of Jack Benny Jr High. He was always willing to lend a hand to a friend in need. I remember when I accidentally locked myself out of the house and was running late for work. In a panic, I kicked my door down and destroyed the jamb. I immediately called Bob for advice on how to fix it. Bob, the master carpenter, came over that evening and fixed it in no time flat. I asked him how much I owed him and he smiled at me and said the only form of payment he would take was a beer. That's just one of many examples of how good hearted a guy he was.
I also will never forget how he and Mandy dazzled everyone during their solo dance at their wedding. Bob kept his "dance lessons" and special dancing shoes a secret from everyone. He and Mandy danced that day like finalists on "dancing with the stars" and rendered a standing ovation from all of the guests. Bob always had a ton of courage and an adventurous spirit. He will truly be missed!

Dearest Mandy, Aunt Margie, Uncle Nick and your wonderful families, my heart cries for your loss. Bobby was such a special and kind spirit. I know that you are so proud of the fine and loving man he had become. I feel blessed to have known him. There is not much I can say other than that my love and prayers are with you all. I know he now rests with God. In time, may your sorrow be overwhelmed with the joy of remembering what he brought to our lives.

Mandy,
I am very sorry for your loss. I will always remember the laughs that Bob, Kevin, and I had on Fridays after work back in the day and the boat cruises(he couldn't wait to get rid of that thing :) . He will greatly be missed by everyone who has had the privilege to have met him. I sure am glad I did.
Love always.
Travis and family
