Dear Family and Friends:
I knew Bob for only a short while, my father-in-law roomed with him. He was always upbeat, had a kind word to say and ready to share the Gospel. He will be missed.

Dear Healey family. I am so sorry to have read of the death of Robert. Please accept my sincere condolences. I would like to share something that I have personally found to be comforting. It is found in the Bible at John 5:28, 29 and Revelation 21:4. These verses tell us that soon God is going to bring about a resurrection of our dear loved ones as well as do away with all causes we have for suffering, including sickness and death. Knowing this has always comforted me and it is my hope that these thoughts will comfort your family also.

Few people leave a lasting impression on your life. Bobby was one of those people who did. He was always so kind. I wish I had gotten the chance to see him around more and listen to more of his stories. He will be missed. Prayers to his family.
