In Memory

On March 10th, late in the day the death angel came and took away one of our best Church members and one of our best friends, Mr. Bob Robbins.

If you knew Mr. Bob, you know that his light did shine and you can see his good works for they were many. When he was able he was always at his place in the Church, always ready and willing to help in every way and always ready to sing, "Amazing Grace." Somehow in some way that sweet old song was dear to his heart. We have many tender memories of his life.

Sons, Grandsons and grand daughters, relatives and friends weep not as those who have no hope, but live in the service of Mr. Bob's God and die in the faith as he died, and you will most assurely meet him where parting is no more.
