    My husband, Neil, and I were very saddened to learn of Bob’s passing. We were neighbors of Dee and Bob from 1970-1973. We have wonderful memories of that time and we are sorry that we lost touch over the years. We send our love and condolences to Dee and family.

    Dee and family, sorry to hear of Bob’s passing
    Bob was a couple years ahead of me at. St.Joe but played football and wrestled with him. Also thanks for the times you helped my gramma Smith when you lived on south st. many years ago. At that time I lived out of town and wasn’t able to help much but visited when in town with wife and kids. Larry Wagner Roselawn Dr.
