    For the past few years, I have had coffee with Bob two or three times a week at McDonalds. He was truly a very nice man. He always left with a joke and a big smile. He will be missed. To his family: my thoughts and prayers are with you.

    A great guy will surely be missed by many and my condolences to all the family. A lot of fun memories will remain, I am sure, and never let those go. Bob, Dick and myself joined the Army just 3 days after graduating in '55 and shared the hard life of Basic traning. There were lots of funny moments that will never be forgotten. Al Rayl

    Dear Diana, Linda and family, I am so sorry to read of the passing of our "Uncle Bob". We were away for the weekend and only now have read of his passing. I feel terrible that we did not make it to visist with all of you at the funeral home. Uncle Bob was a great man that treated my children like they were his nieces and nephew. I've never met a more kind and generous man the one we salute today. I'm so glad that Calvin, Gracie, and I got to see him just this past weekend at Quiznos and got to exchange hugs and well-wishes. The world is a better place because of Uncle Bob's life here on Earth. He will, no doubt, brighten Heaven as well. Love, Keith (from OVCA, Trinity PT, friend of Heidi, Big Red games)
