Bob was a good friend during our time at CHS where wonderful teachers worked tirelessly to educate us and mold us into good citizens. I am sure there were days when those teachers felt the challenge was hopeless!

Although we went our separate ways our friendship did not end. I know Bob's family will feel the loss of a husband, parent, and grandparent. I pray God will give peace and comfort during the difficult days ahead.
