Please accept my condolences.
I wanted you to know that we
were thinking of all of you.
I really do not think that I
will be able to come. Since
Tim's passing in November, it is
far too difficult for me to visit
funeral homes. I hope you will
understand. You ARE in our thoughts
and prayers. I understand all too
well what a long hard road you AND
Bob have just traveled.

Dear Lucille, Robin, Kevin and family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very sad time. Bob was a very special and thoughtful person and we are privileged to have known him for the past 8 years. He always focused on the good things in life and how he could add some happiness to other's lives. Like giving children at Krogers a quarter so they could buy gum....like always asking "how is your Dad or Mom doing?" - We know your hearts are heavy right now but we wanted you to know we care! Your friends, Betty (and Jim) Miller
