I knew Bob as a great man in so many ways. I don’t remember ever being around a harder working man. We cut wood at the farm on Big Bend Road many times. I was 16 years younger but he put me to shame with his effort. He was very nice to me during my HS career at Mooresville. He always seemed to have a smile for me. It was a pleasure to know this wonderful man. God bless you Bob. You had a life well lived and now you rest in God’s arms. Rest peacefully my friend⛪️
