Dear Lee and family,
My heart is saddened to just hear of Bob's passing.
You and Bob came to St. George's just as I was joining the congregation. He shaped my children's faith and guided me through some stormy times. In addition to sharing his faith with us, I loved Bob's sense of humor.
Although he has gone home, Bob will remain alive in so my family's heart.

Lee-- Seth & I were deeply saddened to hear about Bob's death. He shaped my ministry more than anyone. We still listen to his advice from our pre-marital counseling. We both send much love to you and the family.

Lee Hall: I am sorry to hear about your husband Bob. I know you from St. George's Episcopal Church.
I used to make doughnuts for the bazaar for 10 years. I know your boys miss their dad. I miss him very much too.

Lee,
Bob was the hardest working person I ever worked for and with in all my years. I'll always cherish my memories from my days at St. George's Church. I'll never forget the way he always called you "his bride." May he rest in peace.
Fondly,

Dear Mrs. Hall;
Your husband was my pastor for many years at St. George's, Arlington.
He served Our Lord and our Church in a wonderful way. Father Hall and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Lee and Family,
My heart is full to learn of Bob's passing. Over thirty-six years, I have had the privilege to call him my pastor, my mentor, my teacher - and through it all, my closest of friends. Bonnie and I extend our heartfelt sympathies and I pray Eternal God grant rest unto him and let light perpetual shine upon him. May his soul now know its true reward and he rest in peace.
Faithfully yours,
The Rt.Rev. Dr. David I. Moshier

God saw you getting tired so He put His arms around you and whispered "come to me." A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
