My heart is very heavy with grief at the passing of my friend Bob. There are no words that could ever take the pain away. I've known Bob from working with the State, for almost twenty years now. I had the privilege of sitting with him to chat, or meeting for lunch many times. A wonderful individual. It is so difficult to let go of a soul so beautiful. God allowed us to have one of His precious angels for a time. Now, He's called him back to the peace of heaven, where there is no more pain. My family's deepest condolences and sympathy go out to his wonderful family. I will always remember his smile. And I will always treasure the memories of our get-togethers. It was like meeting up with one of the family. He will be missed, but his memory will always be a part of us. Those who are close to us never truly leave us. Their memory is carried in our heart. I thank the good Lord for allowing our paths to cross in life. I feel blessed and honored to have known him, and having shared some valuable time together. Now he is among the angels that guided him through his precious life on earth, as he smiles down on his family from heaven. May God give his family a peaceful heart in this time of need. And may God bless his journey home. We offer our prayers to his beautiful family to help ease the sorrow. God's peace always and may God eternally bless our friend Bob.
