So many memories...wine making talk with Vern,cherished books & ornaments for our daughters Gail & Carol, visits to the Children's Library Inky created. You both made us feel like a part of the family.

Uncle Bob, I am so blessed that you were part of my life and your wonderful spirit we be in my heart forever. Thank you and aunt Inky for my favorite cousins.  Your kindness will be missed but always be cherish by all.  The memories of me standing on the step of my parent sun room and you on the floor so I could look you in the eye lives on with your grand kids.  To all my cousins love you all hope to see you soon.

I taught with Bob at Reedley College and loved and respected him for his genuine interest in students and his kindness to all of us. He was a real friend whose intelligence and sense of fun and balance were blessings to students and colleagues. I shall remember him with pleassure.

Mr. Ledford was my driver training instructor at Reedley High School.  He had one of the finest senses of humor I ever knew and I don't believe I ever saw him without a smile.  I smile now when I remember him being so tall that he could not get his knees high enough to operate the dual brake pedals in the driver training cars.  On one occasion my driving partner got into difficulty and Mr. Ledford had to resort to reaching to the pedal with his left hand to brake the car.  His memory will always be with me.

To Tim and the family,  So sorry to read about your loss. 
Tim, I remember when we would call, your father, about Math problems.  
I remeber the wine that he entered in the Fresno Fair.  Did that ever get drank ?     Betsy Milburn and all the former and current staff at Fulton School

Bob was the best, easy-going, quiet for such a big man, a gifted winemaker (oh he put the work into it) and obviously one of two great parents in an amazing clan of tall and talented offsprings. My heart goes out to his family

My condolences to my good friend Hugh and the rest of the family.  I have many fond memories of eating Inky's wonderful cooking and sitting on the couch with Bob sipping on his home made Pomegranate wine, or as we loved to call it, "Pop's Juice."  My deepest sympathies.

All the family are in my thoughts & prayers, sorry for your loss but now he is free.

A great man who loved to coach basketball and teach, from a player and student from Fort Morgan High School.

Mr. Ledford was one of my  favorite teachers.  He tried so hard to get that "light bulb" to turn on..it was a lost cause!  I remember what beautiful penmanship he had.
My deepest sympathy to his family.

So many things we will miss, homemade olives and wine, dried persimmons and homegrown tomatoes, stories and jokes but most of all your love and presence.

Love,
Kim

Bob,  although we didn't know you well,  you and Inky were cherished by all your family.  You were devoted parents and will be greatly missed by all who knew you.
Lily Clarke and family

Dad, you topped the scales in so many ways!  We loved your approach to life, devotion to family, sense humor and interesting stories, "some of which were true".  Most of all we loved and will continue to love you.

We didn't mind sharing you with the college students you taught physics and math or the little ones you voluntarily tutored after you retired.  We know the joy you felt when you could see the figurative "light bulb" go on when a young mind grasped a concept.

Combined you and Mom were all and more than one could hope for as parents, friends and loved ones.

Though we will dearly miss you, we are blessed to have so many great memories to cherish and sustain us.

Love!
