Grandpa, it is sad that you are gone. We miss you very much. You were a very good grandpa. I remember when Julian spilled that punch during the tornado drill all over the flashlight and you got mad. I am glad that you aren't suffering anymore. We miss you grandma. I love you!

Dad, I miss you so much. It is hard to believe that you are no longer here and have been gone for a year now. There are so many things we do as a family that will never be the same because you aren't with us. I take comfort knowing you are no longer in pain and your battle with cancer didn't last longer than it did. You were definitely a cool dad. I learned a lot from you and will forever miss you. I love you, Papa!

Dad..

I can't believe that you have been gone for a year. Nothing has been or ever will be the same without you here. Somedays I can hardly stand it, knowing that I can't call and talk to you or see your big smile. I love you so much dad!!!

I will miss how he always welcomed anyone with open arms. The first day I met him he was very friendly and welcoming. Not a day went by that he didn't show how much he cared, for his friends and his car. My sympathies and thoughts are with his family and closest loved ones.

Bob was someone who always made everyone feel welcomed, and that is hard to come by at times. I am forever thankful for having the blessing to have known someone who was so warm, compassionate, and hilarious. And he could make darn near anyone smile at anytime. He was a man of many talents, My deepest sympathies to his family.
