"In the loss of your dad, we wish our words could somehow ease your sadness, but in our hearts, we know the most they can do is simply tell you that we care. We just learned of our beloved Bob's demise. We enjoyed our friend for many years while we were in Texas. We loved and will miss him as we did and do loved and miss your mom, Katie."
