My thoughts and prayers are with Josie and all of Bob's loved ones. Bob was one of my favorite Uncles. He was a great man and was loved dearly. He will truly be missed. His humor and the beauty of his stories entertained us all. By the way I never beat him in golf. Love Ricky Sevier and family.

Just like Bob Wascom I enjoyed many a round of golf with Bob. Always marveled at his athletic skills and energy. He would walk 18 holes and head off to bowling or volleyball. We had some great get togethers for a burger around Christmas every year. I will surely miss him. He certainly seemed to have enjoyed life.

WHAT A MAN!!!! One of my favorite people I've ever met, we became best friends and traveled around to play golf quite often. "Handsome Bob" was always talking about his family and his and Josie's travels and life stories. He will be missed! GOD Bless his family!
