Message: We are honored to provide this Book of Memories to the family.

Message: Robert was a great friend.

Message: Uncle Bob you will be dearly missed by the entire family. We will miss your quick wit, your playfulness and hearing your laughter fill the air. The memories we have, we will cherish forever and you will live on in our minds and our hearts forever. Thank you for all the love, laughter and joy you brought to our lives. My beloved Uncle... We will miss you so much until one day we meet again. Forever in our hearts... We love you Uncle Bob.

Message: Bob, I am so sorry and sad to hear of your passing. I hope all the letters that we exchanged while you were in the USAF made being away from home a little easier. I was always so excited to get a letter from you. You and Wanda will always have a special place in my heart. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Rest in peace friend. Love Wanda

Message: Franklin, this is my fourth attempt to leave a personal message. Each time I try words seem to fail me and tears start to flow. I cannot tell you how much your recent calls meant to me. At a time, when mom was sick and I was at my lowest point, you called and lifted me higher than I could have ever imagined. That was the person you were. Even when you were sick yourself, you wanted to know haow everyone else was doing first. Now you have been lifted to your highest by the angels and have received your crown of gold. And justly so. I will miss you my cousin, my friend. Until we meet again.

Message: What a heartbreak this is...but in all loss there are memories which make you smile. After a long haul away from home and Elerie, 'Mr. Bob' would drive up and see me in my yard and shout "Are you still here?" or if I was walking the dogs he would yell (no matter how many people were around) "Woman, get you and your dogs off my sidewalk". He will be a bright star in the night sky.

Message: Uncle Bob, I am so happy that you are dancing with Jesus and able to finally see the face of God. I will always remember your teasing and jovial personality . . . and the purple bubble gum. It hurts to know that I won't see your smiling face or hear your voice on this earth again and that Isaiah didn't really get the chance to know you well (he has a quirky sense of humor that you would love - it reminds me of your sense of humor) . . . but I know you are now without pain, fear, loss, and sorrow - you are happy, healed, and whole. We love you, Uncle Bob, and will miss you - I know that we will see you again, someday, in heaven! You fought the good fight, you have finished the race, and you have kept the faith. You have received the prize awaiting you in heaven - a prize befitting a hero.

Message: I will miss you. And by the way I LOVE you to.

Message: You were like a brother instead of an Uncle -- you brought joy and laughter to my heart and I will always treasure our memories that we have made through life. My heart goes out to Aunt Elerie and Tator and the rest of the family -- may our love keep us strong so that we can lean on one another and keep us strong. Love always and forever! Nancy

Message: Bob our hearts are broken and there will always be a part of us missing. Loved your wit, sharp tongue, laughter and smile. A mixture of Mom & Dad you could light up a room with your entrance. May God surround Elerie and Dana with love, compassion and peacefulness. Love you. Chig & Millie
