I will never forget the good times we all had at Lou's 4th of July family reunions. You were part of the family and I know how much Bob will be missed. I know the "kids", now adults, will always remember him for his "cannon balls" into the pool.

Fred and I were shocked and saddened by this sudden loss. We have memories of watching football together with Bob and visiting with him at his daughter Cindy's house., His love and affection for his wife, children and grandchildren was demonstrated in such loving ways.

This loss without warning is almost unbelievable. We hope that all the family will grow together during this period of grief. Our hearts are with you in our daily thoughts and prayers.

Affectionately.
