To Diane and Karen
Due to a previous commitment, we were unable to attend the service this past Saturday for your brother, Robert. We do however, wish to extend to you both, our deepest sympathy on the loss of your brother. Coming so soon after the loss of your mother Marie, must be doubly painful.
We still miss Marie and her great sense of humor. We understand that her house has been sold and that we will have new neighbors sometime in January. If they are half as nice as your Mom we mill be grateful.
Sincerely, Frank and Val Dawson

Dear Robert,
Though we had miles and time separating us you were always remembered in conversations of our family. We were second cousins related by blood and will always be connected thru life and beyond. May God's angels surround you and bring you together with the rest of our family in the heavens above.
Love,
Lorraine (Pullano)

Though I only knew you for a short time Bob, I am truly blessed to have known you. You have a great spirit and I know you're in heaven making God the most perfect layout. I will miss seeing you in the the train store,and I'll never forget the laughs you gave me everything I entered. You are forever and always in my heart!
The First DCC Locomotive Bob sold to me, as this train links east and west, it started the bond between friends under the same cab.

Bob (Father), you took me under your wing and taught me everything I needed to know about the grestest hobby in the world. The advice you gave me on life and it's problems will forever be with me. My tuesday afternoons will never be the same without you greeting me at Allied Model Train Store anymore. I will miss you greatly and never give up my passion for model railroading. You now ride the rails of heaven with God as the engineer.
Your friend and adopted son...
