He is survived by his wife, Donna Seaman; three daughters, Carol Ray, Carrie Garbison and Kaylene Campbell; one stepson, Eric Zurofsky; four grandsons, Michael Nystrom, Matthew Mccleary, Dustin Largen and Devin Garbison; one granddaughter, Kaiya Wagoner; one step-granddaughter, Felicia Zurofsky; and two sisters, Paula Agar and Debbie Rigterink.

Service will be at the Veterans Memorial Park April 2.

I knew Bob Growing up n we were great friends. We talked on the phone so much that I had my phone ripped out of the wall because we could talk for hours. Really a nice person who made me laugh. Rest in peace my friend

My friend Robert:

John 15:15-17 NKJV
No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. [16] You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. [17] These things I command you, that you love one another.

I thank God for you and that you called me friend!

You were my friend!
