It was sad news when Guy Marvin told me Bob had passed. He was one of the bright spots at Independent and I enjoyed having him as a friend. My prayers are with you and Bob's family.

Lynn: I was sorry to hear about Bob's passing. Allthough I do not remember him well, I have heard from many people what a wonderful person he was. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. You are a wonderful woman, and I greatly enjoyed our dinner together in Daytona. Hopefully we will be able to do it again sometime soon.

Lynn,
I was so sorry to hear about Bob. It was so great to see you over Thanksgiving- we definitely don't get to see you often enough. It was so fun to see pictures and hear you tell stories about your amazing family. Cherish them now as you remember what an amazing person Bob was. My prayers are with you and I hope to see you again soon!
Love, Katie

Dear Lynn and Family,
I was so sorry to read of Bob's death in the paper. I had just seen the great picture of you two on your 50th wedding anniversary and was so happy for you. I worked with Bob, from the Independent Fire side, for many years and enjoyed knowing him very much. He was a great guy and always had an "up" personality. Please accept my heartfelt sympathies.

Dearest Lynn, Thanks for your very touching note. We agree with your husband, Bob, when he said you should have had many more children. They are wonderful people. We can attest to that first hand, having Vanessa live nearby and getting to know Ty, Robyn, & Gardner. Bob has left behind him a wonderful heritage, not found too often in today's society. Of course, you along with Bob have also contributed to the rearing of great kids. We will miss Bob. Love you, Bob & Shirley

Dear Lynn,
I, like all who remember Bob,was very sad to learn of his death, but I was also flooded with wonderful memories that will never die of you both.I hope you have informed your children and grandchildren that Bob was the hero and you were the beauty queen of 64th St in Omaha NE.I still tell the stories of you and Bob always having time for us neighborhood kids,and endless evening buggy rides with Bob as our horse.
Like those buggy rides, the memories of you and Bob are endless and now reside with a new generation.
For all the kids of No. 64st. thank you Bob and Lynn

Dearest Lynn and All the Family,
Please accept our condolences again. It was great to hear your voice and to hear that all the family had been able to come together for celebrations before Bob died and are glad that he had the opportunity to witness this. We tried to insert a message on this Guest Book just after talking to you but for some reason it would not submit. We feel privileged to have loved and known Bob for the beautiful man that he was. We also send our love to you Lynn for the precious being that you are and also appreciate you for your love, devotion and care of Bob. It is now for you to take good care of yourself and we hope that in the not too distant future to see you and mother here on a visit. In the meantime, we send our love, God's Blessings and Best Wishes to you and the family and wish you all continued strength. Love and Blessings,

Dear Lynn, I want to express, again, my deepest sympathy for your loss. I only met Bob once or twice, but could tell he was a special individual. I know you think so, too, as 50 years together firmly illustrates. My thoughts and prayers for your comfort and peace are with you. Hope to make more music with you again sometime. Bass-ically yours, Ron.

Bob/Mary Lynn,
We missed you at Cracker Day activities. You were a great pair...a good model for others. We'll miss Bob's engaging smile and ways, his genuine interest in others' status changes from year to year, sharing his family, and courage and strength to live the fullest of life to the end. We'll miss Bob's presence next year but will be warmed by a multitude of personal and collective memories.

Sweet sweet memories are one of life's most precious gifts. May all of your memories of his life well lived fill your aching heart and help to ease the pain of the loss of a loving husband, father, and grandfather. I'm sure he has already heard, “Well done my good and faithful servant."

I was saddened to read of Bob's death. I have very fond memories of Bob from the Independent Life days. It was because of Bob's recommendation that I became the Activities Coordinator. I will always remember him for that because I was so blessed to have that wonderful position. Bob was a great guy! Always friendly, cheerful and a gentleman, I will miss Bob. Lynn and family - I can only imagine how devastated you are to lose him, but I know you have many wonderful memories that will help you through the difficult days ahead. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mrs. Chalmers, Robyn, Ty, Gardner and V.V.,
Mr. Chalmers was a very special man and will be missed by everyone who knew him.
I am thankful for all the wonderful memories of growing up in Avondale and having you all as neighbors. Mr. Chalmers always had the best sense of humor.
I am so glad that Mom and I came down last Thursday and had that time with you all.
I could tell that you all took such wonderful care of Mr. Chalmers and he was surrounded by lots of love.
Love, Carla

Although we only met Mr. Chalmers once, we know that he was a wonderful man because of the way that he raised his children. Robyn Hoopes is one of the finest people we have ever known. Her character and loving heart are the greatest tribute that can be given to this good man.
