Comments:

Bob was a dear friend who helped me serving in the Army Natl Guard. Our deployment together to Honduras was the highlight of my guard career.

Bob was a true Christian man and full of wisdom.. One drill weekend I joked to him that I was just passing through.  He said we are all just passing through.

I’ll never forget that .      ~Charlie Krug
