I am so very sad to hear of the passing of Uncle Bob. The oldest brother of my father, Jim, I grew up hearing stories about him from everyone. His presence at family events dictated respect, I think that he had this mystery about him for me as a child. Probably the Oldest Son thing. I know my dad, aunts, and uncles all adored him. I remember his smile, like grandma’s - warm and gentle. I send prayers and love to his wife and children. May his grandchildren remember him and tell stories and his legacy be in the strength and bond of his family. God bless you, Uncle Bob.

Bob was one of those guys everybody wants to know in their lifetime. Our Christmas dinners, having an Anderson beat us in cards, (pure luck, I'm sure) and spending time with Roxee and Bob will be memories that never leave us. Know that the Lord welcomed him with open arms as he will welcome us when we enter the Kingdom of God.

I will always remember Bob as one of the most friendly people that I have ever known. I always enjoyed bringing corn into town for my dad, Lester Peterson, and being greeted by Bob's smile.

Roxee, Tari, Tim and families. I was saddened to learn of Bob's passing. I have many fond memories of all the teasing and joking back and forth we did at the elevator. Dad and I stopped regularly when I was home just to have some fun with Bob. May your memories of all the happy times bring you strength and comfort and may God bless each of you.
