Jim, Sharon, Ma and Pop, I am so sad to hear that Bobby has passed. I know it's been 30 years but I still remember the family fun of all those Sunday dinners and just hanging around at the house.  Bobby was such a fun guy to hang with.  I know he will be truly missed by everyone.  You are all in my prayers.  Love, Trina

"The salvation of the righteous comes from the LORD; he is their stronghold in time of trouble." -Psalm 37:39

Bob was as much a family member to our family as a man could be. He never said no to anything we needed from him, it was always " I'll be right there". Bob we need you now, we just have to wait a little longer. I know we will see your bubbling face again, and that is enough for now.

Bob, thank you for being such a stand up guy. we will miss you.

Uncle Bob,
You will be soooo missed by me. All i can think about is the times you took me and my brother to lunch and to the go-kart races and never thought twice like we were your own kids. And all the fun time we had when we worked together. I could never have asked for a better uncle ill promis u that. Well i know ill get to see you agin another day but untill then i want you to know I Love YOU.
Love You Uncle BOB.....
Love, Little Jim

Bob, thank you for loving my Aunt. We can't stop talking about what a great guy and addition to our family you were. We could always count on you to do the right thing in any situation you will be MISSED !!!

Shirley, Bob, Sharon & Jim,  You have our deepest sympathy.  Bob was a good man and is going to be missed by a lot of people.  Although I didn't see him much in later years I will always remember the fun and laughter we did share. He was such a happy go lucky guy, what a tragedy.

DEAR BALLEW FAMILY,  WE ARE SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. MY FAMILY AND YOURS HAVE NOT SEEN EACH OTHER IN MANY YEARS BUT YOU WERE THERE FOR MY FAMIY WHEN WE LOST OUR BROTHER, JEFF, IN 1981.  OUR PRAYERS GO OUT TO YOU ALL.
THE CHAMBERS FAMILY: RAY,MARY,PAM,MIKE,AND KIM CHAMBERS

Bob,

You were a true Father Figure to me. I keep remembering different times we had like us riding together thru the orange fields for so long that we were praying to find a gas station before our bikes died. Or playing really bad golf together.  At least all the shade tree's we stayed under kept us from getting a sun burn. 

Bob, my whole family really misses you right now.  But I have to believe that that you left for a good reason.  Maybe one day that reason will come to light, but for now I just pray that you rest easy.  I love you.

In our thoughts and prayers my dear. 
God has called upon another angel.

Old Bob 2,

Thank you for being nothing but great to myself and my family! You are loved and you will be missed! Much love and respect!

Old Bob 2,

Thank You for being nothing but great to me and my family! We love you and you will be missed! Much love and respect!

My prayers go out to all the family. My thoughts are with you.

Bob, you will be so sadly missed by alot of people When I think of you I see you at mine & Rudy's house sitting on the patio Christmas evening smiling & smoking your cigar's, enjoying everything that is going on around you. Thank you for being there.

Bob, 

I met you a few times, you invited me into your home for dinner we have played golf and you helped me get Jason's bike fixed. Your kindness will never be forgotten. I can still see that huge smile and a big cigar. I know your riding and golfing in the sky my friend....you will be missed by everyone and your family across the bridge......

I am so sorry for you loss, my prayers and thoughts are with you always. I love you all very much.

Bob was a wonderful man!  We are so sorry and all of you are in our prayers and thoughts.  He will be missed!

My Dear Brother,  I love you so much and miss you so much, we didn't talk everyday but I always knew you were just a phone call away. I've wanted to pick up the phone several times to call you for your advise.  I was going over pictures tonight and all the pictures I have I have a brother on each side.  There is a hugh void in my life where you should be standing.  I'll miss your picking on me and making me laugh, I'll miss your hugs, and I'll miss that phase you always said at the end of our conversation, "you know I love ya See-fer, call me if you need me".    I love you Bobby and I miss you.

I can't remeber a time when Bob didn't treat me like family. He was a great man, and a great father. He was like a second father to me and I will never forget him. He left this world too soon, but I guess God couldn't wait any longer for him to be by His side. I know I will see Bob again one day. We lost a great man and there is no way I will ever forget him.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your family will be in my thoughts for the weeks and months to come.

Nikki and family. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I only got to meet your dad a couple times Nikki but he was a very proud dad and pap from what I seen. And he will be greatly missed. Please let me know if you need anything Nikki. I love you.

Dad,
I miss you more than words can say. There hasn't been many moments that have passed by since Saturday that I haven't stopped thinking about you and the fun things we did, and places you took me.  I really need you right now... you are my peacemaker and the BIG comfy hug with nothing is going right.  I miss you SO much, but I know your back and foot and well your whole body, isn't hurting you anymore.  I promise to "kiss JJ and slap the big one for you".  
I LOVE YOU DAD!!!
Love,
Your Precious

As my mind goes back to our childhood days there are alot of memories. You loved life and your family. May God bless your family for they have not only lost a dad, a grandfather, a son, a brother, but they have lost a friend. You will be greatly missed.

To Bob, Shirley, Sharon, and Jim, I am so sorry to hear of your loss.  I pray God's peace will be with you all in your grief.  Growing up next to your family and going to school with your precious "Bobby" is a special part of my past and I will not forget any of you.  I have fond memories of those times.  Hold on to each other and the Lord Jesus Christ for your comfort.

Hillsboro Memorial Funeral Home and Gardens offers our sincerest condolences to you and your family.
