I am so sorry to learn this late , that Bob passed on to eternal rest with the good Lord! I knew Bob from a national club we both belonged to for over 25 years. One of the nicest guys to know! All he talked about was his family and his love for the outdoors! RIP my friend!

Beth and Family,
I was so shocked to hear of Bobby's untimely passing. Please accept my heartfelt condolences. I didn't know him well but Jerry told many wonderful stories of their hunting days that make me feel like I have known him forever. A kind, loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend. He will be missed by many.
