To the family of Bob's, please accept my sympathy for your loss of Your husband and father,, may peace be with you,, neighbohood friend, Bob Cunningham
 




Doris and family,

I am so sorry that I am unable to attend Bob's visitation today or the funeral services tomorrow but you will all be in my thoughts and prayers. I'll always remember Bob as a very happy go lucky kind of guy. He was always a joy to be around. I'll never forget on a Halloween trick or treat night that I know he was the one hiding behind the bushes in a costume to scare us.. :-) Everyone will definitely miss his great sense of humor.

Thinking of you in this time of sorrow. It is never easy when someone you love is taken from you no matter how sick they may have been but he will now be free of pain and in God's loving kingdom.

Love to you all,
Kathy Genova

 




Doris, Laurie, Marty, Bradley & Family,

The Lord will comfort you at this time as only He can.

God Bless,

Doris/Lori/Marty/Brad,

 

I was so sorry to hear the news that Bob had passed away. Please accept my deepest sympathies!!! Doris, I ran into you at Giant Eagle the last time I was home and got an update on your family at that time. I have to say that my fondest memories were from growing up in our little community on the hill. We were all like one big family, playing, vacationing, sharing, and caring about one another. We can't make theclock stand still, however, we can never erase the memories. Bob always had a smile and was always interested in what we were up to and I know what a wonderful husband and father he was. I feel for the sorrow that you feel today. Again please accept my condolences, I wish I could have had the opportunity to visit with you!!
