Bob was a very nice and sweet man we will miss him at church. I always looked forward to my hug:
He is now with the Lord up above and no longer in pain and can breath freely. The family is in my prayers:

I wish I could be there to give you all a big hug and to tell you how very sorry I am to hear of “uncle Bobs'” passing. I have many wonderful memories of my childhood spent with the Baer’s that I will cherish forever. Uncle Bob was a gentle sweet man who always welcomed me as a third daughter as Donna and I were inseparable as kids. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. My deepest condolences and much love ❤
