    Our family was so saddened to hear Bob was ill and has now gone home to be with his other loved ones. I know those left behind will miss him. Bob was always so nice to me and made me feel part of the extended family. I can still see his smile. Bob was kind and I enjoyed knowing him and his sense of humor. I know Sean is trying to arrange getting to the mass on Saturday. God Bless all of you. I'll continue praying for Bob and will be there Saturday in spirit. Love, Cindy

    Ella Mae, so sorry to learn of Bob's passing. I couldn't believe it. You were both so kind to me at Dr. Metzger's office. I thought of both of you often and told my husband I'd like to call and check on you. I wish I would have done that now. My HEART FELT SYMPATHY is with you and your family. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers. TAKE CARE AND GOD BLESS.
