Thoughts and prayers for the family
We are so sad about Bob’s passing. He has always been a dear friend and a wonderful neighbor for many years. Rest In Peace Bob! We will miss you but so happy we will always have special memories of both you and Mary in our hearts forever.
Bob and I have been friends all our adult lives ( and a little before that ). He was a smart, witty,and kind man and I valued our friendship so much. I will miss him and our visits together more than I can say. He was so brave enduring the loss of Putsen and his own struggle with Parkinson’s. Not many people can take that kind of heartache and keep on moving forward. I will miss him so much but I do take solace knowing that he doesn’t have to suffer anymore. RIP my good friend.
