My sincere condolences. Bob is my cousin, his father and mine were brothers. I am closer in age to his sister,Lynn. I have fond memories of Bob since he and my older brother Dave as they were friends all through high school.

His family and mine were close. I remember staying over and having him around like another big brother.

Again, my sincere condolences.

You know how much you both mean to us. You both are like family, and losing Bob is like losing a member of our own family. Bob, as usual, kept his humor and was so very courageous till the end. He is an example of courage, character, and integrity to us all. May he rest in peace.

Dearest Betty and family, my heart
aches for all of you during your time of loss . As you know I am walking that pathway now of trying to make a new life for myself, but only God can fill the void left by the loss of our dear ones. Our only hope is to hold on to God's loving hand and know that the days are not far in the future when we will be joined
together for Eternity. That is the hope we have and all that keeps me going. Yes, there is no end to the tears that fall but God knows about the pain and only He can
help us bear that pain. Know
that you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers and may God give you strength and peace in the days to come
