Linda, Todd, John and families: So sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I often think of you all. You all were such great neighbors to Mom and Dad on Meadowview Dr. Very few of the old neighborhood left as Valaire Orchard passed recently. May the peace of our Lord be with you all in this difficult time. You have our deepest condolences. I will try to get to the visitation on Friday to see you.
