Gretchen,
Just wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers Gretchen. May the beautiful memories that you shared with your hubby be etched into your heart forever. I am sure that this can’t be easy for you but just know that you are being thought of. I pray that the comfort of OUR LORD will be with you at this time of sadness.
I did not realize that Joel was your son. What a shock, because our son, Stephen Fry came over to your house many times and was close friends with Joel. In fact one of your kitties crawled up into the engine of our car and ended up in our garage.
Rest in peace Bob.
Kelly and family,
What a special person to have served his community in so many ways. The role of stepfather is SO SO important, and it sounds like he absolutely BANGED IT OUT OF THE PARK! Sending much love,
Jen and Kristine
Kelly and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of grieving.
May you find peace in cherished memories of Robert.
Fred and Carolyn Gallo, and Staff
RIP Bob and may the lord shine his light upon you.
