Bob always made everyone smile with his goofy demeanor and was a very hard-working man who loved his family and the word of God.  Bob was a very talented self-taught contractor, but his true passion was being an electrician.  He not only worked as hard as ever but he always knew how to get the family together.  Cookouts in his yard were some of the best times and contained some of the best memories.  He loved having the kids over to swim in his pool or simply playing in his backyard.  He really loved having his family surrounding him whom he loved tremendously. 

Bob’s strength is never forgotten

His words and actions are strong and true

When life was hard, he was a man who pushed through

His selflessness will forever be remembered

Always putting others before himself in everyway

When times were tough, he was a brave man.

His honorable ways will always live on

The lessons he taught inward and deed

When people were hurting, he was a man who meet their needs.

We honor you in our hearts now and forever,

BOB WE LOVE YOU!
