Dad,
Your life on this earth was cut short too quickly, but the memories I have are many. You may have spoke with few words,but you instilled in me the desire to never give up. I have a State Farmer, Bachelors,and Masters Degree because you never gave up earning your American Farmer Degree or the many top salesman awards. I hope my children inherit this trait, along with our love for horses. I love you, Rest in peace dad, your little peanut.

We will miss Bob so much. His wave, his smile, his conversation. He has been a great friend and good neighbor. His time here on Calvin Road was not long, but his memory will last a lifetime for those of us who got to know him.
Deepest Sympathy,
darlene and larry
