Our prayers are with the whole family for comfort and peace in this time of loss. I really enjoyed being around Bobbie and he always put a smile on my face. I’ll never forget the time that he scared the heck out of me yet still managed to make me laugh. I had gotten a flat tire and was quite far from the exit and wearing high heels and an outfit that you wouldn’t want to walk on the side of the expressway. An extremely rough, long haired, motorcyclist proceeded to pull over in front of me and began to approach me. I was a little scared and he could tell and when he was close enough for me to see his face and I recognized him he began to laugh because he probably knew the things that had gone through my mind. It was not a coincidence that Bobbie ended up on that expressway in the same place as me at the time I needed him most. He changed my tire for me and helped me to build my faith that we are watched over from above and given the help that we need when we need it. On that day, Bobbie was my “angel” sent from above and I will never forget that memory!!

Linda, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Although it has been years since we have seen you guys, we always think of Bob as a funny, fun loving guy. The first picture of him that always comes to my mind is him and Mark Pyrc in their bibbed overalls with the red knees. All good memories. Mike and Jan
