Bonnie and Patricia,
I can picture Bob sitting at your Sunday kitchen table just like it was yesterday. His dry sense of humor and warm smile is something I will always remember. Please know I have you in my thoughts and prayers during this time.
Love

Dear Aunt Bonnie and Trish,

I'm so sorry I cannot be there to say in person how sorry I am about Uncle Bob's passing. I know we all take great comfort in that he is with our Father. He was such a special person. I remember even while in High School I never went to the mall without going by and saying "Hi" to him at Ward's. And, boy did he love to pick...

I'm so thankful you've had so many years together. What a wonderful blessing!!!

Sending all my love and hugs,

Bob (Jr.) Balfour

I recall Bob attending chruch at John Calvin Presbyterian at 10th and Grandview in KCK. I remember him as a gentleman and a singer in the choir. The last time I saw him was at Full Faith Church of Love. God bless you all.
