Dear Barb & Family,

So very sorry to hear about the loss of Bob. You were so fortunate to be able to share all those wonderful years together.

My memory goes back to 60+years ago and all the great double dates we enjoyed together with many laughs.
(3 Hungarians & one Swede)

Do you remember the four of us sitting and watching Elvis Presley at your house on your very large TV screen? Both the large TV (because we didn't have one at my house) and seeing Elvis Presley for the first time impressed me so much I never forgot it !!

(A special message----)

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there.
I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there.
I did not die.

Love & God bless, Vera

Aunt Barbara, Vicki. I'm sorry to hear about Uncle Bob. It was nice to see him again when you, him, and Micki visited my mom in St Joe's. He is at peace.
"2 Corinthians 5:6-8" So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, for we walk by faith, not by sight. Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

Much Love,
David

Barbara: So sorry to hear about Bobby. That's what I have always called him since I was a little girl. My Mom and Dad were close friends of Bobs parents, and my brother Al Bodnar was friends with Bob. Glad to have known Bobby. Barbara Bodnar Bajoros Hein.
