Bob was a great guy to work for at Falveys´ during high school and always made the job fun. We talked a lot about Huntington, Marion and Muncie/Selma sports and people - and politics. He even loaned me his red Firebird to go to the Prom! He loved Angie a lot and valued his friends in the Huntington business community. I know he will be missed.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

A very caring classmate. Always upbeat with sports information and remembering games and people. A great advocate for keeping basketball history alive. He was very proud of his wife and family.

Bob has been a friend since our days at Selma High School. We were both trumpet players in the band and teammates on the baseball team. I've lived out of state for many years and I regret we haven't visited often. One amazing memory of Bob was that in later years, he remembered ball game details that I probably forgot the day after a game. He had an amazing memory. We will miss him.

Angie and your dear family, words cannot express my sympathy to each and every one of you. Bob loved his family as much as any man I have ever known. You were all so special to him and Angie, you were the best wife Bob could have had. We always loved seeing you and Bob at our class functions. Bob always loved to talk to Mr about Terry, he loved him so much. Know they are probably getting in trouble again in heaven.
May God be with you all and please know I care.
