Thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this difficult time. HIs smile, along with his laughter and jokes. Been many years knowing Bob and Polly, two that were meant to be together forever. They were so fun to watch when they were young as they dated and lived with each other and then getting married settling down and having children. Both work alcoholics her at Penny’s, him with the tree service and his daytime job. Always fun to be around. Very cute couple. Very loving family and great kids and grand-kids. They loved family, the bigger the better. Go with God Speed Bob and know that you are truly missed. See you on the other side.
