Our deepest sympathies on Bob's passing. I remember him fondly from growing up in North Liberty and going to church at First Baptist. He always was so kind to us and had such a great sense of humor. We are so sorry for your loss and are praying for you, Norma, Leanne and your families. Claudia (Schrader) & Joe Ambroziak

I was so sorry to hear of your father's passing. He sounds like such a special man. Over the years you have been so dedicated to his care - what a blessing! As the Greek's say, "May his be eternal as he is now." I pray that you all feel God's loving embrace during your time of loss. You & your family are in my prayers.

Bob is Home with His Lord. Amen!! If I know Bob he is golfing on those golden courses and getting a hole in one on each or at least telling everyone he is. :) We will miss you!. You have been such a fine example for your community, your family, your friends and your Lord! You are now reaping those benefits of being a Believer and living a life that honored and glorified His name. Well done faithful servant. Until we meet again my friend.

Norma, our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this difficult time. It gives us peace to know that Bob is with our Lord in a place of no more tears, no more pain, no more sorrow. I will always cherish the time we had together serving in the church, sitting around a dinner table, or the many hours on the golf course. Bob always put a smile on our faces. He will be greatly missed. May God be your comfort in this time of loss.

In Christian love,
Bruce and Judy Wynn

Praise Jesus another Saint has entered his kingdom. Bob was one of the finest Chritian men I have ever known. I knew Bob since childhood and attended First Bapt as a teenager and married there. Norma, LeAnn, Rudd and family my prayers for you are that God surround you with love and bring you peace. Jack and I wil lift up prayers for you.
