We wanted to express our sincere and deepest sympathy upon the passing of your Love One Robert Thinking of you, Silver Oaks Health Campus
Arvilla, First instinct found me wanting to refer to you as “Bellie” as Bob always had since way back when. Apologies for not attending the services as well as making a second attempt to visit you at home. Time rarely is on our side as we tend to think. Hope you kept my phone # and will feel like using it before too long and we’ll be seeing you on Thursdays when we do. You are an exceptional Mother and were a wonderful wife to Bob for a very long time. It’s just SO hard to give them back as we must. Respectfully, Jan (Webber)Ford
