I extend an invitation to anyone who knew Bob, to share a fond memory or two about him at the event . . . and in lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the U of M Raptor Center, in Bob's honor, or to the Ronald McDonald House . . . or, perhaps simply use the money to do something you'd really like to do—go out to dinner, buy a new spring outfit, take a little weekend get-away, head to Valley Fair . . . in other words, use it to enjoy and embrace life, the way Bob did, and the way he would want you to . . .

Dear Jen, I really wish I could join all of you, but I will be on I-35 to Ames IA for my nephew's graduation from Iowa State. I wouldn't be surprised, however, to find that Bob will make his presence known at this service in some way. Perhaps an owl will hoot, or the leaves will rustle on the trees, or a thunder boomer might occur. Love to you and all of your and Bob's family and friends from Suzanne.
ReplyDeleteWe will be there in thought, and we will track you down next time we are in the area. Lean on us all.
ReplyDeleteDear Jen,
ReplyDeleteYou don't know me, but I was a childhood/neighborhood friend of Bob's. I am so very sorry for your loss. Although I lost touch with Bob in my adult life, I never forgot the impact he left me with. I remember him so bravely fighting cancer as a 6th grader. A few years later we would jump on the inner tube in my back yard with another friend of ours, Troy Curry. Bob was an amazing guy and I feel very honored to have known him. Please know I will be praying for you and Bob's family in the days, weeks and months to come.
Sincerely,
Sonya (Johnson) Brandts
Dear Jen - My apologies but I am out of the country til Sunday and I can't be there on Friday to honor your beloved husband. Please know that I am just one of thousands of people who you and Bob have touched throughout your lives that are holding you in our hearts on this difficult day. Sincerely, Betsy
