Dear Bob,
Jim and I are so sorry to hear about the passing of your dear wife. You both were always so interested in our family when we lived in Franklin. You both took me for a bike ride on the bike trail on a day that my parents had left and I was feeling sad and always made us feel so welcomed. When we would come back to visit in Franklin, you always asked how our boys were doing. You remember when they were born and always showed such care. Bob, Anne is now experience total Victory in Jesus!!
We love you and are praying for you.
Grannie Annie you will always hold a very special place in my heart. Grandpapa Bob I’m so sorry for your loss. I wish I could be there with you during your rough time. Sending my love and prayers.
I first met Anne shortly after her daughter Julie was born. I was dating her brother Roy and he brought me to meet them. In the early years of our marriage, we lived in the house behind them and there was a lot of traffic back and forth. Anne would tell me “Bring a can of salmon and I’ll invite you to dinner.” That made for many happy hours.
I loved her and will miss her so much. Bob, I’m so sorry she’s gone. You were both so close, even in the early years. Hang in there. We love you.
