I am so sorry for the family’s loss. He was my buddie at MHS and let me tell you we could get in some mischief. I was sad when he retired. He took care of us always with a smile. His pic is still on my board. Peace be with you all.

Bob has always been an integral part of the fabric that makes up our family. He will be remembered as a Patriarch, Husband, Father, Brother, and the best Friend anyone could ever have. Bob’s soul will live in the hearts of all of us who morn at this time, but know that his love, laughter, and spirit of giving to others will always be with us. May the Lord hold you in the palm of his hand, My Friend.

From your wife and kids to your brothers and sisters and nieces and nephews the love and laughter you have brought into our lives will insure not only the Frentz legacy but that you will always be remembered and loved.
