Yesterday

Bob was such a lovely man! I was lucky to have the pleasure to meet Bob and his wonderful wife, Amy, a few times over the last year or so. The first time, after our visit, I was offered dinner which was neatly packed for me to take on the road. I have never forgotten the two of you and your kindness and love. I loved that I was able to come back out and have a few more visits and calls with Bob. I know Bob is smiling down on us and especially you Amy. You both have such a special place in my heart and will never be forgotten. I am so thankful that our paths crossed. Bob will always be remembered, and I´m blessed I had the pleasure to have met him. God bless you Amy and know Bob is always with you. My love and deepest condolences- Jessica Beach
