I was saddened to hear of Bob Marlowe's death today. He was a business associate and a friend. We had many interesting conversations and he was the support I needed from time to time.

What great memories I have of your Dad. He was always ready with a kind word, and, along with his group of great friends, taught me so much about what love, respect and friendship truly means. He was loved so much and will be missed by so many. God Bless you and your family!

Bob has been a member and leader at Terrace United Methodist Church for many years, being a leader in many areas but particularly in the Chancel Choir. He and his family have touched many lives there. His presence will be missed, but his spirit will continue to live and influence our lives.

I will miss his good humor and hearing his strong melodic voice floating across the yard as he rehearsed his songs.
