Bob, I heard about your father today. I want you to know how truly sorry I am for your loss. I know how much you loved your dad and I know how much you're hurting at this time. Just remember he's in a better place and not suffering. I'm down in Melbourne, Florida with my wife at the present time. We're buying a mobile home down here for the winters. Don't really like being up in Ohio in the winter months so we decided to do something about it. I believe that my wife will really like being down here in the cold months. I still would like to come by sometime to see you all on one of my trips down here. You take care. Love to you and your wife and your mom. Stay strong. Don

I've met Robert once and from what I saw of him, he was a very funny man. My fiancé (Shane Garrett) told me some stories of his grandpa and he seemed like a strong-willed man. He will be missed by many and my heart goes out to the family.

To a great man. I was happy to be considered part of the family. You will be greatly missed.

You will be greatly missed, my thoughts and prayers are with the family...

 Whispers from Heaven

When I left this world without you ,

I know it made you blue.

Your tears fell so freely, I watched: I know this is true.

While you were weeping,

Days after I passed away --

While all was silent within me,

I saw you kneel to pray.
From this wonderful place called heaven

Where all my pain is gone,

I send a gentle breeze to whisper,

"My loved ones, please go on."
The peace that I have found here

Goes far beyond compare.

No rain, no clouds, no suffering --

Just LOVE from everywhere.
You need not be troubled

Just stay close to GOD in prayer

Someday we'll be reunited

My love, HIS Love surrounds you always,

EVERYWHER

We little knew that morning

God would call your name.

In life we loved you dearly

In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you,

you did not go alone;

for part of us went with you,

the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories,

your love is still our guide,

and though we cannot see you,

you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken

and nothing seems the same,

but as God calls us one by one,

The chain will link again.

Robert "Bobby" was a wonderful uncle. He was a great man that touched so many life's & he will be missed by so many people.

Sorry for your loss. amanda,chuck, sean, god bless your all.

Our condolences, Your family is in our prayers. In time your memories, will replace your fellings of sorrow with memories of joy. May Peace be with You and Your Family. Chuck , Amanda , and Sean .

Big Bob, I will always remember you as a Big Teddy Bear. You were one of the most caring, loving, man I have ever met. I will forever be grateful for the time we shared. Now you are with your Mom, Dad and two sisters. Keep smiling Bob! We will miss and continue loving you for years to come. Soar with the Angels Bob.

Dad, We will miss you dearly. We love you! Our hearts are broken, but we know you are at peace. 

“May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind be always at your back
May the sun shine warm upon your face
And the rain fall soft upon your fields
And until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of his hand”

Robert, you were a great man who loved and cared for your family very much. You were the best friend and hero to my stepfather. He learned how to be a devoted family man from you. The love you bestowed, your legacy, will live forever in each of us. Thank you for that gift! May you rest in peace. Love, always, Krista

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Robert was a wonderful man and will be missed by all who have had the pleasure of knowing him.  I am glad to have had the pleasure of getting to know Robert and having him as a part of our extended family.

I am just now learning about the loss of my neighbor, Mr. Garrett. I knew Mr. Garrett only briefly. I once talked to him when his dog wandered to our mailbox as he walked the street. We live 2 doors up from him at the end of a long driveway. I know that he was friendly and would often wave as we passed. I also know how gracious he and his wife were with our son Barry and his wife Andrea who live at the top of our driveway. I will always remember him for his generosity to them; he gave them some plants for their yard. He and his wife have a beautiful yard. I admire it as I drive by. I regret that we did not get to know him better. My heart goes out to his family in their grief. I will pray for them. His untimely death is hard to bear, I am sure.  Jerry and Karen Rollins
