Marilyn, Larry, Cheri and Julie, Thinking of you as you grieve the loss of Bob. He was a very fine man who loved his family, his community and most importantly, his Savior. Truly a servant's heart and a life welcomed "home" with "Well done good and faithful servant...enter into your master's happiness". With sympathy, Bill and Kim Bunton

When I started my career with Extension in NW Missouri in 1980, Bob was very gracious and welcoming to this newcomer! He was a role model for many of us--exhibiting the characteristics of a consumate professional, but always staying close to his roots. I know he will be missed not only by his family and loved ones, but also by his community and the Extension family.

Mom and I are so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. He was such a dedicated husband, father, and community advocate. Once when my father was ill, he came on a Saturday and planted one of Dad's fields. He helped Mom and Dad with several house projects that were too difficult for them. I remember that he always had a smile on his face and was so committed to Rock Port and his family. Bless you, Bob. In loving memory, admiration, and respect, Doris Noellsch and Barbara Fritz
