Jason I am so very sorry for the loss of your father. While I did not personally know your dad I would
imagine he is the man responsible for passing along to you those traits and characteristics that
make you such a kind, compassionate, patient and loving soul. Myself, Steve and Jonathan are so
blessed to have you in our lives. We will walk beside you not only during your time of grief but for
many more years to come.
All our love - SusieSusie, Hays, ks

Sue I'm so sorry for your loss. Bob was one of a kind and we will miss his humor. He was always in
a good mood and really just at a loss for words. Please stay strong, Love, KennyKenny, Kansas
