Shar, Adam, Brian and Miranda,
Was so sorry to here of Bob’s passing, you are all in my thoughts during this painful time.
George, Pam, Nick, Avery Dobrick
Even when it’s expected it doesn’t make it any less painful…I’m so glad you guys came to see us again that last time and I’m very thankful for the phone conversation Bob and I had last week. He sounded better than I’d heard him sound in a while. I guess in a way he had become the patriarch of the family after Dick passed. The one who did the worrying and passed the news and took care of all of us in his own way along with you Sharlene. It never went unnoticed.
Sharlene, you are a very strong lady and that strength will eventually carry you through this. Bob loved you so much and bragged on you often whether you were carrying huge rocks to build a patio, making candles or even just cooking a great meal. His admiration of you was always evident. It must feel like you’ve lost your right arm after being together so long. My heart goes out to you and to the boys and Miranda. You are in my prayers. May each of you find comfort in your memories and love for him as we will also. We are all still family no matter how far so call on us anytime and keep in touch. God bless all.
Dear Shar:
Sorry to hear that your husband has passed away. I will be praying for you and your family. God bless you.
Day’s working with Bob will always be remembered.
Condolences to the family.
