Prayers are with you during your time of loss. I remember Mr Bob from Chicago Mill. He was such a friendly person who never seemed to meet a stranger. Lynn, I have tried for years to locate you. I don’t think I would have made it through my senior year without you. You were so much like your dad. God Bless you and your family. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
