    Doris and Bob were the best neighbors we had. We loved them like family. Our children took to them like grandparents. We miss them dearly. Love, Mark, Ramona, Chelsea, and Robert.

    Norma Jean, I am so sorry for your loss. I often think back to all the years Doris and I were in school together, the summer days riding our bikes, attending Kolmont Church together. Except for the occasional GKL Reunions we lost touch as so often happens when we graduate high school and go our separate lives. Praying that God will see you through this difficult time.
