Sorry for your loss
My parents lived next to Bob for years in Parkesburg. He treated them very nicely. My Mom loved playing Bingo with the girls at the complex and Bob was the best caller. He will be missed. RIP Bob and condolences to all the family and friends. From Lydia Rissel and Viola Cooper and family.
