To all the Dredger Family, I only learned last evening of Bob's passing and send you all my deepest sympathy. As you all know you were blessed to have the greatest Mom and Dad in the world. I loved them both and often think of the happy times I spent with them when we were all working at Park&Planning....Love, Kay Hoyle

Deepest sympathy to all my cousins. Your support and love was evident in the way you cared for him in the past months especially after losing your Mom. Uncle Bobby was indeed a hero in my eyes. We bragged about our Navy Seal!!! He was a lot of fun and we will miss him! He and Aunt Miriam are together again.

What a great person. Not only did take the time to teach me how to work on my car as a teenager, he umpired my little league games, and held me accountable when I made mistakes. He was one of a kind and will be greatly missed but his legacy lives on in all of the people he touched.

Our deepest sympathies to all of the Dredger family. I consider myself lucky to have been a part of your family for so many years - you are good people. Big Bob was a very special man, and I know how much you all will miss him. I believe he and Mim are smooth sailing all the way now. Gail
