Bob was our neighbor and friend. We spent many fun times playing cards while listening to 50’s and 60’s rock & roll and sharing good food!! He was caring, thoughtful and could tell a few good stories with his sense of humor.
Bob’s life showed in his heart, for that: we laughed a little harder, smiled a little
wider and were greatly blessed!
Love,
Dave and Beth Barnhart :)

You will always be in our hearts. We will miss you, but your memory will always live on through your kids and grandkids. Your boys definitely got their love of cars from you, and will be thought of everytime a antique car is spotted or if a race is on. Rest in peace.
