Our hearts were so sad to hear of the passing of Brother Bob. He will be sadly missed. We have been away from Second Baptist for several years, but our hearts and minds will always remember the wonderful times and friends that we made there. Bro. Bob was just one of those special people. He always had a smile and loved to joke with the choir and it's members. He was always very friendly to us. He will be sadly missed and to you the family, we just want you to know that you have our deepest sympathy. May God look down and comfort each of you in this sad time and in this time of loss by each of you. God Bless You always.............. Ron and Billie Jean Queen
