Dear Family,
I’m so sorry. Bob was a great guy and I always enjoyed his humor and his love. He was such a meek person and I was gifted with him being my cousin. Bob and Jerry came to Texas often to work for my Dad in the oilfield and they stayed in my Mom and Dad’s little rent house. We always had so much fun. You always knew that they loved you. I will miss Bob and his kindness, that smile, and his love. I know that I will see him again someday and I’ll be able to spot that smile a mile away.
I love and pray for you all. I know this is a tough time but I also know that God is in control.
I love you Bob, and I’ll see you again one day. You’re in my heart forever.

We are so sorry to hear this. Bob has been a lifelong long friend. We were class mates, team members in football, and shared rides to and from college. I have many fond memories of his laughter and smile. Also some great memories of wonderful meal at his folks house. Prayers for all of the family
