Uncle Bob, I miss you and have so many memories! I treasure our letters in later years and so admire the man you were.

I really can't find enough words to say everything that should be said about Grandpa. I never heard you say anything bad about any of your grandchildren. You attended more band, choir, drama, & other school activities than anyone should. You were always there for me, my mom and the rest of your family. I knew that I could always count on your being there for us. It really hurts that for the first time in 42 years I won't have you around. I won't hear anymore of your life lessons or the oranges and dress socks you got for Christmas. But I consider it a great blessing that you are my grandpa. I really love you and I pray God grants you rest with all the righteous souls made perfect. I wouldn't be who I am today without you, Grandma, & my mom.
Grandpa, I will always remember the decent, strong, hard-working man you always were. You did whatever needed to be done to take care of your family. None of us would be here without you. I have many wonderful memories of you that I will always cherish. I am comforted in knowing you are now reunited with Grandma, Aunt Pat, and all of your other family and friends that went before you. Please say hi to my Dad for me. I will always love you Grandpa. You meant the world to me and you are in my heart forever. Until we meet again...
Your loving granddaughter,
Kim
