Mr. Nettle was a treasured friend, insurance agent, tax preparer & counselor to my parents, and thus to our family. Not living in his legislative districts, I regret not having been able to vote for such a fine, reasoned, dedicated public servant!

Bob & Dorothy have been in my life since I was born. He took my first baby pictures & my wedding pictures. I enjoyed being with them & even stayed with them when I was younger. Being with them was fun. Bob's stories where the best & family reunions really brought out his best ones. Joe & I enjoyed our visits with him at Coal Ridge, he had a captive audience. You will be missed by many but never forgotten. You were more than a cousin. Rest well with Dorothy in God's presence.

My sympathy to the Nettle family. Wow! 95 years! Bob did my taxes for many years. I knew two of his daughters well. He was a kind, warm, wonderful , funny man. He is reunited with his beloved Dorothy.
