To the family and friends of Mr. Robert G. Farnham Sr. I'm so very sorry for the loss of your loved one, but know that you can depend on God in times like these. I've found these verses to be of comfort at Psalms the 62nd chapter the 7th and 8th verse.

I would always look forward to seeing Bob. I could always convince him into playing a game or two of pool. He beat me in our last couple of games.
Bob, you will be missed.
