Losing such a beloved member of our family, especially on Christmas Day, adds a poignant weight to the holiday season. Uncle Bob lived a remarkable 84 years (giving me hope that I might live a long life) leaving behind memories that I will cherish. Your enduring marriage for 64 years of marriage (hoping to match, impressive) is a testament to the strength of your love shared. Especially your devotion to caring for him during his later years speaks volumes about commitment and strength you had to each other. Please know my thoughts are with you during this time. May you find comfort in the memories of Uncle Bob’s kindness, wisdom, tractors, and humor, and in the support of those who care for you. With deepest sympathy, Your Favorite Nephew #11 from: Sam Foos MARYSVILLE Mon, Dec 30, 2024 at 9:14 PM Bob and Juanita were the kind of neighbor's everyone hopes for and we got to have them for a long time.
