    So sorry to hear of the passing of Bobby. I am grateful for the reunions he arranged for the Nuber side at his residence on the request of his mom after her passing. I had a opportunity to get to know Bobby better and he sure could roast a pig to perfection. Thinking of you during this time of sorrow. Karen and Gary Nuber.

    I got to talk to Bob on Friday even though he did not talk to me he seemed to know me being there.
    Bob was my computer guy and also for some of my family. When we had a problem he would help us fix it.
    I did not know of Bob’s condition until recently, I am glad I got to see him before passed away.
    My Condolence’s to you and your Family at this sad time.

    Lyn…we haven’t seen Bob in many years, but remember him fondly. Tried to send a card to the house but it was sent back to us saying there was no mailbox? We send you our love and hopes that God will bring you comfort in the days ahead. God bless you and your family at this sad time. Bill and Mary Jane Fay
