To offer condolences online, visit www.wright-beard.com We'll all miss Bob's easy-going manner and love for and devotion to his family, but take comfort in the knowledge that Bob has entered the Kingdom of Heaven. May God bless Bill, Rich, Becky and all of Bob's loved ones. Love, Bette, Diane and Bill Barden I was shocked to learn that Bob had passed away. I also didn't know he became a believer in Christ. I wish I had known because I would love to have had the opportunity to see the great things God had done in his life just as He has in mine. Bob was a gentle, very likable man in the years that I knew him. I'm sure he will be terribly missed by everyone. May his family have peace knowing he's now with the Lord - in our human understanding it seems he was taken too soon. Love and prayers, Debbie would like to offer my condolences to his other daughter Tonya who was not mentioned in the obituary. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
