Your Wife and Mother, Ann, will be sorely missed. I did not know her well... But I did know her by the things she did. She married a wonderful man and she raised four exceptional adults who in turn became great parents because of the example set before them. She was a good cook and her house was always spotless. She was compassionate. She cared. She was my Aunt. Those are the things I know and will miss her for.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Bob and your family. We know you will feel a great loss and void in your life. Annabelle was a great lady and her family meant the world to her. You must remember all the good times and hold tight to your wonderful family. We will keep in touch.
