To Bob's family: I worked with Bob at Stroh's for many years and am truly sad to learn of his passing. It was far too soon. He was a good person. You and Bob are in my thoughts and prayers.
"Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
To sweet eternity.

We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We are all meant to learn some things,
But never meant to stay.

Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know,
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.

But when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord. "
Rest in peace............

Bill and Kathy,
We are terribly saddened and surprised to hear of Bob's passing. May GOD be with you and your family. Hopefully the good memories you have as a family will remain forever.

I am sorry we will not be able to attend the services as we will be out of town.

Most sincerely,
