Dear Lou Anne, Anne Marie,Brenda, Missy and your entire family.  
We were shocked and grieved to hear of Bob's passing.  We wish to extend our love and prayers for your comfort in this time of loss. We all became friends when we lived at Brookside and own kids went to school together.  Our friendship continued after you moved to Madison.   Brad remembers many enjoyable evenings spent during deer season in Bob's home made deer processing shop and really enjoyed the way he cut our steaks extra thick the way he liked them. We always looked for you and Bob at the area carnivals and always had stories to share.  We will miss him even though you moved away. God bless you all and my His love help to fill this tremendous hole in your lives that was your husband, father, grandfather and cherished friend.  Please accept our condolences. 
Love always, Darnette and Brad.

  Rob and I never excepted to open the paper and read this. We have a lot of memories of Bob, I still have a picture of him taking Eric for a horse ride. Rob will miss seeing him come down for a pig at Wayne's, and if I would have known you were going to come along this past year I would have come over to see you two. Just know you and your family will always be in our thoughts.
   
  Love Rob, Sue, Hope & Eric
