Pat, and family, what a wonderful picture of Bob. And also, what a good, kind, and loving man. It was a pleasure to know him, and an honor to sing at his passing, and an honor for Joe to be pallbearer. When I think back on Bob, I think of a man who was always there to help, give a kind word when needed. A true Christian friend. There is no doubt in my mine Pat that the instant his eyes closed in death, they opened to see our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. How wonderful. We will keep you always in our prayers.

As hard as it is to have another member of our family move on to their Heavenly Home, I know in my heart "Fatboy" (Bob) was met by lots of Angels and they're having one joyous reunion free of pain. I for one, am blessed to have so many wonderful memories of the times shared with Bob (aka Fatboy). May each of you find peace and comfort in the many wonderful memories of Bob. Pat, You and Bob were like another set of parents to the boys and I. Praying for you all.

Mrs. Lyle, I am so sorry for your loss. Bob was an amazing individual; it was a blessing to know and work with him at Big Three/Air Liquide. He is now a special angel in heaven that will be watching over each of you. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Pat, you and Bob have meant so much to me over the many years that we have been friends. I was honored to be Bob's "adopted" mom and I am still honored to be yours! I have been thinking today about all the wonderful things that Bob has done for me and our church family and how he has touched so many lives. He truly is an angel and we were all better off to have known him. God Bless you and your family! Love, "MOM"

Pat, it's hard to realize that Bob is gone from us. He has been such an inspiration to all those whose lives he touched. There is comfort in knowing that he no longer has pain and suffering, but is with Jesus in a perfect body. We'll see him again, some day. Much love to you and Steve and Brenda and the grandchildren.
