Bob with dear friends from Marietta while attending a convention in the 1980s.

Bob and his daughter Alison with Witness friends in Marietta Ohio 1980’s.   How we look forward to being with them again in the New World !

He and I alway attend the assembly to learn more about our God Jehovah .  My dear sweet husband is sleeping in death soon I will see him in paradise on earth .  He will be young again. Ps 37:29
Isaiah  11:6-9 He will enjoy a wonderful hope enjoying the animals. Isaiah 65 :21-23 he will build his dream house and live in it.  It won't be long I will see my sweet heart.

He loves to eat. We were  playing Chess of course I always win. He was being funny.

This is Uncle Bob's Grand-nephew Steve, and me. I'm his niece, Sally. My mom, Ruth Anne, was Bob's sister. We always enjoyed his visits and I have such fond memories of him when I was a child. He and Aunt Nancy and Alison would come to spend a day with us in Cambridge or we'd go to Lancaster or Devola (Marietta) to see them there. When I lost my mom, I realized that there were so many questions I wish I'd asked her when I'd had the chance. I'm grateful to have had that chance to ask Uncle Bob many questions and for him to answer as many as he could.

He and Marilyn were always welcoming and kind to us. Marilyn was a wonderful wife to Uncle Bob. He was so fortunate to have spent 26 years with her.

I wish there had been more visits in later years, but I'm grateful for the ones we did have. I'll miss him very much. And thank you, Marilyn, for taking such wonderful care of him.

Please accept our sincerest expression of sympathy in your time of loss.  We are so humbled that we were able to be a part of Bob's life.  We have enjoyed our conversations with him and his infectious enthusiasm for life and the stories he would share with us.  Talking about his time in the service and the trips he took on trains were often the highlight of our week. 
May you find comfort in all the memories you shared together!

We remember with great pleasure your wedding day.  And especially the fun time we had your reception!  There was some awesome Swing dancing going on!  And our Ellie had her first dance with her papa. 
We're looking forward to a repeat of that party after the Resurrection.  And you and Bob can lead the Swing dance!

What a treasure Bob Wilson was! Several years ago I had the pleasure to have a thin smiling gentleman with a cane and his lovely wife knock on my door. When I answered I didn't know that I would find a couple of the most blessed servants of YHVH that I have met. Such wonderful folks out doing the work of Jehovah. We had many wonderful talks and I am blessed to have known Bob and Marilyn. I saw a call from Marilyn and I told my wife that I felt she was calling about Bob's passing. And it's true. Thanks be to you Jehovah for bringing them to my door. I look forward to our reunion later and may the peace and blessings of Jehovah be on the family. Praise his holy name.

I didn't know Bob for very long but I enjoyed visiting him and Marilyn on a regular basis and hearing all his stories.  He had a great mind that was able to recall so many facts and historical details.  I really look forward to seeing him in Jehovah's new world young and healthy again!!

What a hope for Bob. Ressurected and  living in excellent health, happiness and serving our God and creator, Jehovah with peace and contentment with his family and friends!

Bob was a very kind hearted man.  Fond memories of him working in service with our young daughters.  That was over 40years ago, I still can see him holding my daughters hand as they walked doing door to door.   Bob said he loved taking young children to the door with him, the householder was always more pleasant.   He loved to talk to our son about trains, and always gave us a history lesson.  He was a sweet guy, he will be missed.   Looking forward to seeing him again, soon

My earliest memories of Uncle Bob go back to the 1950s.  As a kid, I always looked forward to his visits.  He never lacked for stories to tell with infectious enthusiasm, a smile, and a laugh.  He paid attention to children more than most adults would typically do, regaling us with stories of the Old West and the Modern West where he enjoyed living and working in the vast, untamed spaces of Nevada for many years.  Though we always lived in different cities, he always stayed in touch.  I am grateful to have had a last visit with him a week before he died.  We shared memories.  Though I am not JW, I was touched when he expressed the hope to see me again someday in the next world.  I’ll hope so, too.  For all 70 of my years, he was a wonderful uncle.  Thanks for being part of my life, and farewell, my dear Uncle Bob.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Bob was so funny. He loved history deep thinker. Loved Jehovah so much. When Mailyn and I would play cards I always brought junk food he loved that. He had a sweet tooth for sure. Will miss him. Love Sue

Marilyn, thinking of you and your family. I am sorry for for your loss. Bob was a kind spiritual brother and his endurance and faithfulness set a good example for all of us. He will be missed.

Some of my fondest memories with bob happened when I was a young girl. From playing chess and learning about history,  to hearing stories about his youth, bob was never a dull moment. He was passionate about what he loved and I admire his faith towards our loving creator Jehovah. 

I had the privilege of taking Bob to the memorial last year, not realizing it would be his last. This memory is more bittersweet for me than anticipated. 

We will see you soon Bob, I love you and Memaw so much ❤️

Marilyn and family. We are so very sorry for your loss. We are happy that we got to know Bob and very much enjoyed his company. He was a very kind person and was so much fun to talk with. His knowledge of history made every conversation a learning opportunity! Our prayers are with you now for calm hearts. We look so forward to the time we can get to know Bob in good health!
Love Colin and Lori Skidmore

Faithful to our loving God Jehovah until the end! Your fight is over my friend, as we all look to that time when we are all together again, a hope I knew you held dear! Revelation 21:3,4.  Sending so much love, warm hug and prayers for comfort to Marilyn and family!
