Debbie,
We are so sorry for your loss. We love you and have you in our thoughts and prayers. We found this scripture this morning, I hope that it helps you to know that God and your family will help you through. Isaiah 41:10 says: 'Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'
We love you,
Billy, Patsy and Boys
My deepest sympathy
Debbie, I am so sorry for your lost. I find this very hard to swallow myself. Bob was a good friend and a great person. He will be missed sorely but always be remembered for the great human being he was.
We all share the pain but have to remember that he will always be present in our hearts and the one thing that Bob would want us all to do right now is to keep strong, pick ourselves up and move on (that is the selfless, noble type of guy he was).
Sincerely,
Marc B.

Bob will be missed....
Bob was a very hard worker at Nexans in Elm City, NC. He was reliable, honest, friendly, and cared about his job and the people around him. Bob had a positive air about him. His presence would put people in a good mood. He was certainly one of a kind and is greatly missed by myself and everyone that knew him at Nexans.
Sincerely,
Jeff Wagner
