Sallie Amore wrote a sympathy message

“I cared for Bob and his wife, Myrle, for a brief, but meaningful time. Bob took a particular liking to my homemade applesauce and it gave me great joy to watch him savor each spoonful. When I met him, he struck me as a serious man, so my mission was not only to make life easier for him, but to make him laugh, often! My favorite memory of Bob is the day he slipped his arm around Myrle's waist and they began to dance. A moment I will never forget! May he rest in eternal peace.”
