Dear family, I just learned of Bob's death.My birthday was the same day. I moved from the B'ville area immediately after our high school graduation. Zell and I were best friends, Bob and I were in the same class,we all attended church together, and I spent many a wonderful time at there house. In so far as I know Bob never attended a high school reunion. I tried to find him many times. The obituary reflects the love he had for his family and that it was equally returned. I knew him as fun loving, gentle, kind and really great person to have pasted through my life. I am so sorry for the entire family as you grieve his absence. Most sincerely and with love, Janet J. Larson
