Bob was a great Brother,Brother in Law, and a SUPER FRIEND. He would have given the shirt off of his back if to anyone that needed it. Bob was greatly Loved and will be missed by everyone. We Love You Bob and will see you again one day.
Bob is a cousin that was easy to feel close to, and I am so sad that he will no longer be at our family reunions. He was always so jolly and talked to everyone. I could see that he truly enjoyed being with family. He called us “ Cuz “. I am praying for all the family, and a healing touch for Ida. I love all of my cousins. May God comfort you all with happy memories until that grand reunion in Heaven.
You will be greatly missed , Ida you and your family are in our prayers.

the family.. "See you later"… Jim & Karen Davis
