Today, Memorial Day, I finally have courage to acknowledge what a loss it has been to no longer have a phone call daily sometimes multiple calls in a day from my “cuz, brother and best friend”; a title I gave Bob. He called me to express his care, support and love. I hope he was able to feel the love support and care I tried to give him. Life for Bob was extremely hard the last 1.5 years. When I felt helpless in wanting to physically help him, I resigned myself to always take his calls and listen intently to speak hope and encouragement into impossible situations. He would always tell me a funny story; we would laugh and end our call. Bob was amazing in all his inventions to make his existence easier; equipping his walker with everything one could need urgently. We talked about having them patented. He never gave up as he struggled to keep his life unchanged. My family loved Bob and we talk about how much fun we always had when we were together. Tripp always enjoyed their connection with the Grateful Dead and all the stories of the concerts Bob attended. Just this weekend I shared the game Pass the Pig with the GA girls and my Grands; thanks Bob for your introduction to this silly game❣️❣️ Your memory will never die❣️ You fought a great battle in a fight against a senseless mistake❣️ Love to you and we will see one another again❣️

I will always remember Bob as a kind, caring, and thoughtful person who enjoyed laughing with people. He was my first love, and although things didn’t work out for us, I will always consider him one of my best friends. He was such a warrior going through his medical challenges in the last few years until his body gave out, so I believe the Wounded Warrior Project was a perfect choice and a worthy one with which to honor him. Bob made a lasting positive impression on everyone he met, and will always be remembered. Donna Friesen (Lindsey) Wigton

Our dear friend Bob, we cannot believe you’re gone. Our hearts are hurting. Always the charmer, outgoing and with a great sense of humor, you never met a stranger. When you became our neighbor, our lives were broadened and enriched by you. We’ve had such fun together through the years, experiencing new things and making wonderful memories. Those were some of the best times of our lives. Even when you moved from Georgia our bond has continued to be close; your funny “Bobism” sayings shall remain with us forever. Sadly, these last years have brought health issues, but you battled them like a champion. The world has lost a good one. You will always be our Rock Star! Lovingly, always and forever, Ralph and Dena Lawson

My dear brother. Bobby never met a stranger and always had a story to tell. Everyone loved being around him. He loved Grateful Dead band and his Makers Mark. His love for aviation came at an early age. He would build model airplanes and hang them from the ceiling of his bedroom. Bobby had been thru so very much the past couple years and has said to me in the past couple months he did not know how much more he could take. When he went to the hospital for the last time he called me when I was on the road to my daughter's home back in Greensboro and asked me to face time him, which he had never asked this before and I said I would when I got to Jenn's house. I faced timed him and we talked for a while and he also faced timed Lanny, Jenn, Greg and my Grandson Evan. So grateful for that. Not long after that he was taken into ICU due his labored breathing and passed away a few days later. I will think of you every day and you will always be in my heart until we meet again someday. Love from your sister.

Bob was Awesome. I know that is a simple word, used so often in todays speech, but that is a word that best describes my experience and interactions with Bob. I was seriously ill; both Chris and Bob stayed by my side, helped navigate life and living. Bob brought me joy, comfort and fun even to the most mundane things...shopping at Publix. When I was much improved he graciously accepted sharing a meal and enjoying a wonderful toast...living, laughing and celebrating. He always had a smile and made me smile so often. I am happy to say I was blessed to have Bob in my life and called him friend. Bob has brought me impactful and loving memories that I will always cherish. Blessing to Chris and family; I hold you all in my prayers.
