Dear Bredrup Family, I was visiting Chicago, and my brother told me of Bob's passing. I hope you remember me, because I have wonderfully fond memories of the entire family. As a young girl, I always thought Bob was so handsome and so kind. I hope all your loving memories are slowly replacing the sadness. He obviously touched many lives, and from the notice, I can see he was the proud patriarch of a very large family.
My best,

Dear Viola and Family,
We were sad to hear of your loss.
When we last saw Bob on Swedish Day in the Park, he smiled his beautiful smile and had that wonderful twinkle in his eye which we were happy to see and will always remember.
As a long time family friend he will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Love,
Lori Magnuson Dieter and Donna Magnuson Nelson

We sang together in church and now Bob has joined the greater choir
in heaven. Peace!

I am so sorry for your loss. Spending lunch after church and playing rack-o is one of my favorite memories. He will be missed. Much love and prayers to everyone. Sorry I will not be able to attend the service.

I remember fondly a Thanksgiving with you all at Donna and Kent's home. We played cards and shared so much laughter. I loved listening to Bob and his sons playing music and singing together. Bob and Charley played guitars together too. It was such a fun and joyful day. This is a Thanksgiving memory I will always cherish. I am grateful to have this wonderful memory of Bob and his family.
