Kathy I just received Bob's obituary in the mail from my mother. Please accept my deepest sympathies. I remember Bob as a young man and he was very nice. I know I haven't seen you since school, but my prayers are with you and your family. May God help you deal with you loss.

Dear Pat, and Pam;
We were so shocked to read about Bob. You were good neighbors and Bob was good to Brian. We will keep you in prayer. We won't come
to the funeral because I just had a hip replaced, and Warren has 3
rupured disks in his neck and the spine. May God hold you, untill you are able to stand alone.
Warren, Elizabeth,
Family

Kathy,
My sincere sympathy to you and your family on your loss. I enjoyed visiting with you and Bob at the class reunion last year and was again reminded of how steadfast and stable Bob was. Please feel free to email me if there's anything I can help you with.
In His love,
