I always knew Uncle Bob could sing, but the memory I have the strongest is the day he sang at church (Pitts Chapel). He sang "Statue Of A Fool" to this day I can still see him sitting there playing his guitar. I've never heard that song again without that going thru my mind. I love you Uncle Bob & I will miss you always. I know you are with Granny, Grandpa and Aunt Gearle now. God needed you for something and he has a reason. I'm thinking of you Aunt Cheri and the boys. I love you all.

I will love and miss this wonderful person that was always a joy to talk to. God gave this angel a voice from heaven and a wonderful talent for music. I can still remember how I use to ask Uncle Bob to play the guitar and sing for me and he never failed to do so. I love you all and send my heartfelt sympathies to the family.



Love, Sandra
