Dear Dan and Tina, we are so sorry for your loss Bob will be missed terribly
Earl would often call to check on the cattle prices and have lots of good old
conversations about farming in general! this message should have gotten to
you both sooner unfortunately we just got the news today that Bob had passed
away. Bob was truly a dear friend

Dear Dan and Tina, and Emma, Albert,Rose
We send our deepest sympathy to all the Thomas family, relations and friends. Especially Dan, our lovely son-in-law, and Tina, and Emma, Albert and Rose. We are sorry we cannot be with you at the funeral on Saturday but will be with you in spirit - and in our conversation which will be filled with reminiscing about our times with Bob, and all the exciting stories we've heard about him from Dan.We admire his independent spirit, his courage in moving far from home to make a new life for his young family, his derring-do (which we've heard about!), his lovely quiet sense of humour, his closeness to his two children and Emma, Albert and Rose, as well as the warm ties he built among his friends. And his courage and endurance throughout his illness. A life to celebrate indeed - and we know that he would heartily enjoy a celebration with his beloved family and friends.
Our love and sympathy to you all,
Peter and Noreen Parker
Our daughter Izzy, Emma's younger sister, wants to add a note from her husband Richard, daughter Lily, and herself of course:
Hi, our thoughts and prayers are with Bob's family. We got to meet him on Christmas get-togethers at Dan and Emma's house in las vegas. He was so amiable and gentle. We're very sorry for you loss,
-The Testardis (Isobel, Rich and Lily)
