Dear Betty, I was so sorry to hear about Bob. I have so many good memories of the fun times enjoyed by the four of us. I felt really bad about n ot being able to attend the services. Had to go to the emergency room tues morning, but things are looking better. You are in my prayers and I'll call you soon.

Betty,
I am so sorry to hear of Bob's passing.
I just found out and wish I would have known earlier so I could have attended the wake.
He helped me in so many ways.
He was a great and loving man...my sons still speak of "Uncle Bob".
My deepest sympathies to you and the family.
