Dr. Bob was my husbands and my Dr. for over twenty years. He cared about the little things as much as the major things going on in our bodies and lives. We was so thankful he looked into natural remedies instead of drugs like most Drs. do. We enjoyed his wife Marcia, they worked well together and always took care of us physically, spiritually and with paperwork. We miss Dr. Kunz and look forward to seeing and being with him and his family in heaven. Much love to you Marcia

Anyone who knew this man knew he was a very faithful servant of God and a special man. Always felt like Bob cared and his right hand, Marcia was just as kind and both very personable - always left feeling better, medically, and emotionally.

Sorry, I only recently learned of Bob's passing. He was such a smart, funny, and clever classmate at IU Med School.
We will always remember his smile and kindness !

I just now read about Dr. Bob. He was my doctor until I had to change because of insurance. He was a wonderful person and a 'people' doctor because he truly cared. he will be missed.

My wife Tracy Hatfield worked with Dr. Bob for two years. He helped her become the wonderful nurse she is today. Dr. Bob allowed EMS people to assist him and learn procedures. I was assisting him in old CCU with a procedure and woke up in corner on floor with a nurse holding a fan on me. Dr. Bob was laughing as he always did and suggested maybe procedure was not my future. He was always there with a kind word and hug. He will be missed. RRH

We had such respect for Dr. Bob as a person and a doctor. He showed such compassion and caring for the whole person. It was not the dollar that interested he and Marcia it was the helping of the person totally in health and personal concerns. Bob and Marcia always took the time to share with their patients. Anyone who was lucky enough to be a part of his life will always be grateful for he and his family. God Bless all of you.

I met Bob 35 years ago while I was in nursing school and working evenings in a clinic where he moonlighted while in Residency. We called him "Dr Hugs!" He was so kind and always teaching! Our paths crossed over and over through the years. The thing that always impressed me was that he was sincerely interested in everyone he met. It's hard to believe he's gone from the earth. Prayers for peace for the family he cherished!

Bob was my families doctor. He was the only one my doctor let touch her. She was very shy. He was very kind to Leta and I. We did not leave his office with out a hug. He was a very good counselor when I was going thru my divorce. He will greatly be missed.

I worked with Bob at AHN. He was also my personal doctor until I had to switch doctors because of insurance reasons. He was a wonderful kind person, and one of the best physicians I have ever had. He was a joy to work with and I am glad to have known him. RIP Dr. Bob. You will never be forgotten. Praying for his family that he left behind. May God bless all of you and bring you peace.

We loved his kind and thoughful approach to medicine, it came the time that medicare burdened his desire to serve his friends & patients the way he though they needed. But his wise decisions helped us stay healthy thru this decade.Bob always had his gentile way to make his point for us to abide in his recommendations. We think of him often,
