Robert Jurek Obituary

Dear Jurek Family,
We would like to extend our deepest Christian sympathy to each one of you. We know that Bob is watching us from heaven above at this time. He is in no pain, and he can live in happiness always. We want everyone to know what beautiful arrangements were made for Bob, the funeral was a very honoring and touching. We never knew all of the personal achievements of many kinds he had. May you all be at peace at this time, know that God is with you, and that he is watching over you. He will walk beside you and keep you going on these up and down days to come. One of the things I often remember hearing in passing from another person was "give it to God". So sometimes when I'm having a bad day or trying to get through a struggling time in life, I remind myself Kristen- you have to "give it to God". May the peace and love that Bob had for each and everyone of you, comfort you during this trying time. Please know that you are in our thoughts and our prayers. We are praying for each of your personal strength and compassion at this time. Please know if there is anything we can do...please let us know.
Love, Kristen Lindemulder
On behalf of:
Matt, Kristen, & Caleb Lindemulder, Don & Bobbi Rich

Dear Pat and Family,

While I have never met you Pat, I wish to send my condolences to you and your family. Sue has talked about you and Bob from time to time, and also about his health. I know that he is at peace now and with Our Lord. You are a special person and may you find the strength to go on and always remember the good days you spent with each other.

Sincerely,

Dear Pat:

I had the opportunity to kneel and pray at the casket of Robert M. Jurek Sr. Wednesday night. The chapel was exquisitely adorned with beautiful flowers and even more beautiful children and grandchildren. Those children, and their children, are the most significant part of yours and Bob's legacy. It was an honor to talk with them about their father and grandfather. God Rest Bob's Soul--Bob, the proud Marine, the resourceful angler, the devoted White Sox fan, Pat's boyfriend, Pat's soulmate....
God Bless You!

Dear Pat,

I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart and my prayers go out to you all. After reading the many expressions of condolence on these pages, a thought comes to mind that "there's a lot of love in the house tonight." And that love and support goes to Bob, to you and your family. Know that you're in my thoughts. God bless.

Pat and Family:

My deepest sympathy on the loss of Bob. You took care of him over the past years now someone else will be caring for him. He is at peace. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Dear Pat and Family,
Although I cannot be there to
personally express my sympathy, I
want you all to know you are in my
thoughts and prayers in your time of
grief.
The memories I have of Bob from
school are very happy ones. It is
the happy memories that sustain us
when the tears start to flow.
When I think of Bob I think of
seeing him on the basketball court
and all of us yelling "Go, Bobby, Go!" I'll bet he and Ray have
already played their first pickup game!
Lots of Love,
