I miss you, Daddy. You'd be delighted with all of the things we have done since you left us. Tucker did great in a spelling bee! Cara, Jessica, and Colton found a ton of mushrooms. I have made it through at least 6 tornado warnings without crying and panicking. Mommy is getting the windows redone in the house. So many things have happened; I just want to see your name pop up in my texts telling us we are doing great. I listen to a voicemail from you on repeat. I love you and I really hope there is a place where I can see you again.

You may not be with us physically but you remain in are hearts!

Goodness - how many memories can fit on a page. Lots of fun times with Bob during our high school years - a good kind soul with such an artistic talent.  So sorry to all of the family with his passing.

Bob was a good friend, neighbor and great dad. He put up with my daughter while playing with his girls when Angela was sitting for my daughter. We played softball on the Diamond Dogs. I wish Angela,Felicia,Cara,Jessica and Colton the best. He will be missed.

My heartfelt condolences go out to his friends and family I knew Bob from value check liquor department yeah he was is a very nice person I use to take him in some hot peppers now and then from my garden yeah he was a very friendly person I got along with him I really liked him God bless his soul

To All of the Family 
We Are so Very Sorry For Your Loss 
Our Prayers Are With You All

Cara and family,
What a wonderful and light hearted obituary for your Dad. I didnt get the pleasure of meeting him, but from the things you have shared, I feel this made him smile down at you all. 
I hope you all remember the good times and laughter you shared when you have your not so easy days in grieving. My prayers and thoughts are with now and in the days to come. Im truly sorry for your loss.

Colton, words can’t describe the loss of a man like your father. He was so proud of the man you are becoming. I want you to know that I am committed to being here for you for the rest of my life—whenever you need advice, support, or just a reminder of how much you are loved. I’m always here. Please remember that you don't have to carry this grief alone. I am always in your corner and always just a phone call away. I love you, kiddo. - Proud to be your Uncle.

So sorry to hear of Bob's passing.  I always enjoyed working and getting to know Bob when we both worked at Value Check. 
My condolences to you all.

God bless you Bob you will be missed rip old buddy.

Grew up playing basketball with Bob in high school and anywhere we could find a gym . Give him the ball on the baseline and he was going to score. He was fun to be around and I have a lot of great memories being around him back in the day . I’m saddened to hear this . Thoughts and prayers for his family.
