Dear Bobby, Carol and Ricky,

I was so saddened to hear of Uncle Bob's passing. He and Aunt Jean will always hold a special place in my heart. They were always there at every special occasion for as long as I can remember. I feel blessed to have them as my God Parents. I will always fondly remember the smell of Uncle Bob's cherry tobacco when he used to smoke his pipe. I also remember how he used to feed the squirrels and "critters" that visited him daily. He was a true gentleman and I will miss him dearly. May God Bless you and comfort you. Love, Pati Beem (Doherty-McDonald)

Uncle Bob you will be missed by those who were very close to you, and by your family in Iowa. I know I only met you a few times when I was very young but will keep you in our thoughts. May you rest in peace with grandma and grandpa and your wife Jean and Aunt Ruth. Cara Glancy Waller
