Guestbook

  1. Bob always seemed to be around to give me grief, but also some very good ideas with projects around the yard and house. I’ll miss his wit, occasional sarcasm, and friendship!

  2. Bob was a dear friend to Joe and me. He had a kind heart and always knew everything about everything! We had great that’s and visits and we will forever cherish our friendship. Sending love and rich blessings to you all. Love, Joe and Andrea Cassell

  3. Nikki and Family – Bob was an icon – you and your family have my deepest condolences. Jackie Williams

  4. Nikki, I am so sorry to hear about Bob, but I know he’s in a better place now and won’t have to deal with the craziness going on in this world now! I have also told our old work buddy, Woodi Wooding, as well as the people who work at Life Care, where we got reconnected a while back, so they will all know about Bob. And, I still laugh remembering when someone came in to see Bob when he was at Life Care, and somewhere in our conversation, he told me that he called Bob “BADAMS”! I’ll be praying for you and your family. Nancy Smith
