Pam, I am so sorry for the loss of your father…..I know for sure how hard it is for you since I just went though the same thing nine months ago….I want you to know that as hard as it is he is no longer suffering and you will see him again someday I truly believe that….and as hard as it is in time you will begin to just remember all the good times you shared with your DADDY as I do mine!!!!! Love to you Pam, Rae-Lynne decatur, IL US
My sincere sympathies go to your family for your loss. I had the privelege of being Bob's foreman at Burks Pump for several years. In all that time, we never had a single cross word. Bob always had a smile and a great work ethic. We shared many a laugh over the years. We have lost a true good man…. decatur, IL US

Mom past on of a heart problem in 1995 and Dad of bone cancer in 2004.May the Lord give you comfort and peace in the now and future.Sincerely Decatur, IL US
We first met Bob and Bev at Pam and Jamie's wedding and have since become better acquainted through the Moose Lodge. We are so sorry about Bob's passing, but take comfort in the knowledge that he is in a better place and that he's no longer in pain. The Lord only never calls upon us to bear more than we can, so the loss of a loved one hurts, but we endure. Remember the good times, and know that he loved and was loved by his family.

Dear Bev, Pam, Jamey, Shelby, & extended family,I want you all to know how sorry we were to hear about Bob's passing.Bob was such a nice, warm, person. Whenever I remember him I'll think of that great smile!It is a very hard thing to do, but know that he is in a better place, and that one day, you will see him again. Until then, he is watching, and is with you, smiling down.With our Deepest Sympathy,Michele Galloway & Family Roselle, IL US
I remember golfing with Bob Sr., Bob Jr. and Matt many years ago. I remember seeing Bob Sr. on his way to work on his bicycle while I was headed to work @ ADM. I remember him folowing Bob Jr in many tournaments & being a proud Papa when Bobby won the City. I regret not being able to get to the visitation or funeral. Bob's in a place with no pain where we hope to see him again.My Condolences,Mark Van Rheeden Mt. Zion, IL US
