Dorothy, We were sad to learn of Bob passing away. We have so many wonderful memories of the weekends spent at the lake, talking with you and Bob. Our daughters remember how good Bob was to them, taking rides on the lawnmower and the little car. He loved to tease all the kids. My granddaughters bought a little book at your garage sale. We always talk about who's book it was when we read it. It stays at the lake house. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. We are getting together at the lake for Memorial weekend with family and friends. We will make sure to remember you and Bob.

Dear Dorothy and family: Sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I worked along side Bob during my time at ARMCO's Blooming Mill. He was a good man to work with, even when we didn't always see eye to eye. I sincerely hope his retirement years were productive and happy. Semper Fi Bob it was a privilege to know you....Robert Burns

I've known Bob, well since I can remember really. Bob and Dorothy always lived right by my families place at Lake Pomme De Terre, good ol' Hickory Haven. Bob was always good to all of us "weekender" kids and used to drive me around in his Tin Lizzy cars, and we were always petting his dog and watching it do tricks that he'd taught it. Bob was always kind to me and I'll always have my good memories of being around him at the lake.

Dear Dorothy and family,It is with heavy hearts that we learned of the passing of Uncle Bob.I use the expression "Uncle Bob" because everyone in the world seemed to know Robert by that loving name.Poopsie loved spending as much time with Bob and Dorothy as possible,in her youth.Around our house you cannot mention Bean Lake without spending 20 minutes telling Uncle Bob stories.Of course we all know who taught Poopsie all the water ski tricks she knows!
The things we will remember the most about Bob are the facts that he was a great ,loving husband, father,grandfather,great grandfather and Marine.He was also the best friend you could have.Did I mention what a hard worker and carpenter he was? I think most of the children in most Missouri counties probably have a special wooden toy, handcrafted with love by Uncle Bob!Bob seemed to have a special communication with young ones.That is part of what made him a great guy.
It was always a pleasure to just sit on the porch with Bob and have a cold one on a warm summer evening.He always had some good stories to share.Again these are the things that made Bob,everyones "Uncle Bob". Once again Uncle Bob thanks for your,love,friendship,and being who you are.
Semper Fi,Uncle Bob.
Our Love,Matt,Poopsie, Danny, Erin and Alex Rynard
