Martha, Lewis and Jake, I wanted to send my condolences to you, on the loss of your husband and father. I knew Bob from Mountain View Cemetery and always enjoyed his participation in our meetings. His active contributions of interesting thoughts and valuable ideas always helped to make our discussions more useful and relevant. His goal was to ensure that everyone at the Cemetery was well taken care of. And I know from our conversations that his family meant the world to him. My thoughts are with you during this hard time and I hope that as time passes, the sadness will fade and the good memories will live on. Sincerely, Jennifer

I am saddened by the sudden passing of Uncle Bob. When I was a young boy I thought Bob was just about the coolest guy around. To this day, whenever I see an old Plymouth muscle car, I think of my Uncle Bob. My deepest sympathies to Bob's wife, Martha.
