My deepest condolences to the family. Revelation 21:4 offers this hope for the future, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more. Neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."

I met Bob when called to bring him Communion. Bob & Joycelyn were always two of my favorite people to visit. Both Kathy and I offer our sincere condolences. Would like to have been able to come to the visitation and funeral to meet the family Bob spoke so frequently of. Unfortunately, Kathy and I will be out of state. I will keep Bob and all the family in my prayers.

Dear Misty and Family,

We were sad to hear of the passing of your dad. We have many happy memories of the "fun times" our dads shared. And of course fond memories of our visits to the farm.  

Keeping you in our prayers during this difficult time.

Love, Mary and the Reiser Family
