I have known Bob Ferguson for many

years - since the early 70's. I also

attended 4th Presbyterian Church and

found out about his death from the

Church. I work for Coldwell Banker

and he also worked for our company

in the past prior to Keller William.

Bob was always a true gentleman and

a wonderful friend. He will be missed by all who knew him. I plan

on attending his upcoming Memorial

Service at the 4th Presbyterian

Church.
