In Loving Memory

I was saddened to learn of Bob’s passing. I worked with Bob at Texel USA in Henderson, NC (I was the office manager). His son Bobby’s mom, Cheryl, is cousin to my husband Ralph. I enjoyed knowing Bob the short time we interacted at work. He was always full of fun and very outgoing – he definitely had an upbeat and wide-open outlook on life. I am glad for the short time I knew him. I know his family will miss him and it will be especially difficult for his son, Bobby, as now his mom Cheryl is also waging a battle of her own against cancer. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to all Bob’s family. May God strengthen you as only He can do and may your memories together bring you much comfort in the future.
