To aunt Donna, Rick,Eric,and Cindi,from the bottom of my heart do I say these heartfelt words , your father was more than just a husband, father brother or uncle. As we all know life throws us alot of obstacle at us that seem to be impossible to overcome, all that we have to do is remember the fond memories we have of him. the lessons on life he taught us, and the ability to always bring a smile to our faces, when our lives seemed so dim. There are very few people in this world that give themselves like your father did, he touched so many lives,in his time, and was always there to brighten our days. For this I will cherish him in my heart forever, though i am sad, i have a smile on my face because he is now without pain , without worry , and without sorrow. God Bless I love and miss you Uncle bob

Dad you never considered me your "step" daughter you considered me just your daughter. You raised me into the person I am today. You changed my diapers, helped me learn to ride my bike and introduced me to so many new experiences. We went camping, to seaworld, Kennywood and so many other places. I remember the day I found out you were not my "real" dad and I still remember how bad it hurt to hear it. I may not be your flesh or blood but you raised me and loved me since the day we met when I was only 2. Words cannot say how much I appreciate your raising me although you did not have to. I am not your "step" daughter and you are not my "step" dad... you are my dad its that plain and simple and your the greatest dad at that! I love you and you'll always have a piece of my heart for the rest of my life. Thank You dad for raising me and thank you even more for your love. I love you Dad!

Hey Uncle Bob, I'll always remember the times we went riding around after school and how you always wanted me to fix you up with my "hot friends", how you'd bring me home after school when I'd miss the bus on purpose just so I could go to the community center with my friends. Love Ya Always Terry Lee

Marie and April My thoughts and prayers go out to your family at such a sad time. Your father was a great guy and did always help when it was needed. He worked on my car and didn't want a dime for doing it. He raised you guys to be just like him and you should be proud to have a dad as precious as he was!!!! Tonya
