Robert "Bob" Lanier Obituary

He was preceded in death by his parents, Denver and Lucille Lanier, and brothers, Dennis and Bill Lanier.
Bob was best known for his hard work and took great pleasure in providing for his family.

Bob's kindness, generosity and unwavering love for his family will never be forgotten.
In lieu of flowers remembrances may be given to the American Red Cross. The family is truly grateful to all blood donors, as a result Bob has received numerous transfusions over the last 2 years.
