What a blessing it is to have a father with a legacy of positively affecting others lives! He was an awesome man who raised an awesome family. Praying for peace and joy for all of you, knowing that he is now with his heavenly father.

I am blessed to have known Mr. Twa. He was so funny and caring yet very stubborn :) I can understand as i was one of the caregivers for him and his wife at Grand Pines and i know it was hard for him to "give up his freedom", but he came around after awhile and he was treasured by the staff. I will never forget his stories and contagious laughter! may he rest in peace.
"I want to show you something", as he opened his wallet and displayed an old crusty card. It read something like, "I do it for the boys, and someday you will too". That was boy scout camp back in the late 60's. I will never forget that. And I will never forget the strong, quiet, wise man who brought his troop to camp and shared his wisdom. If all boys could grow up like him. His record of fathering more Eagle Scouts than anyone stood for years. Scouting and this community lost a gifted mentor, friend and wonderful person. God bless you Bob Twa.
Susie and I would like to express our condolences to the entire Twa family. Our prayers and hopeful thoughts go out to You. Kenny and Susie Klop.
Uncle Bob was the 'Favorite Uncle' that everyone has. I remember many visits to the Twa's in the summers, marveling at how well the house and family functioned with so much going on. He loved to tell jokes and kid around with all of the Greens - it was such a relaxed atmosphere. One of my favorite things about visiting was to get to roll the sweet corn right on top of the stick of butter - something his sister Pat wouldn't let us do at home! Happy Trails Uncle Bob, you and your family were a big part of our lives.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Bob and Marge for the past 3 years. He has got to be one of the most sincere men I have ever met. He adored his wife and it was very clear that she was his everything. I learned a lot about his life thru his stories and his humor and jokes where sure to make you laugh and brighten your day! We will all miss you Bob, your an amazing guy! Heaven has got a very special angel.
It was a true blessing to be able to work with Mr. Twa! May you rest in peace. :)
It was truly a pleasure knowing you, Mr. Twa. I was blessed with your stories, laughter and sweet smile while at GP. You will be missed.
