I have known Bob for over 70 years. He was a good, honest man who would help anyone with any problem they might have without any thought of being re paid. He was that kind of man. I had a lot of good times playing golf with him for many years. I know he loved his wife and family very much. He faced death bravely. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. God bless Kay and all the Van Wynen family.688k

Wendy, Doug & family, I'm deeply sorry to hear about your Dad's passing. After reading the obituary, it was clear that he was a very loving and well-respected man who had accomplished much in his life. He also was a man of many talents - probably went hand in hand with his expertise as a machine operator. It's pretty amazing to hear that he made his own golf clubs. Please know that I'm thinking of you and that I want to offer my support. The reality of facing this difficult situation eventually reaches us all, but does not diminish the individual pain that you're experiencing. I hope that with the help of those around you and the love of your family that you'll be comforted as much as possible. With my deepest sympathy, Lenore Orozco

Dear Wendy&Doug,Rob&Wanda,Randy & Nancy, I am very sorry to hear of your families loss. The smile and twinkle in your Dad's eyes is something I always remember even from the days at Jericho School. He always had a kind word and truly enjoyed his life with his family. I know I have been out of gone for a long time but your family is one strong part of my childhood and adult memories. Take comfort in knowing that many others care. I wish I could be there to give everyone a big hug. Be thankful for all of the years that you were able to share with him. Love, Kate Krenn

I wish heaven had a phone so I could hear your voice again. I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories in a picture frame. Your memory is a keepsake, from which I'll never part. God has you in His arms and I have you in my heart. We will miss you forever gramp...love ya!
