Always Remembered
Although my memories with Uncle Bob are few and far between…. I knew you well enough to know your passion that existed, for not only horses, but for your family. May that legacy continue on in those who knew you best, and may the memories you shared bring comfort during the most difficult times. Celebrating your life, and your reunion in heaven, with those who have gone on before you. Give a big hug to my Dad for me! ❤️
Deepest Sympathy
I met you uncle Bob several times at church and the Ft Wright driving range. Such an amazing man. I am sorry for your loss but happy for his gain with Jesus.
