I am happy to say I had the opportunity to get to know this fine Christian Man and his wife Merle. They were such a comfort to my Dad while my mother was suffering from Alzhiemers. Merle, Dad and I will never forget the tape you sent of the S.S. class sending Mom and Dad best wishes and the poem you read. You are in our prayers. GWW, Jr.

Merle...... About four years ago Harold and I moved to the Dallas area to be closer to grandkids. Sometimes we don't hear about the death of friends until much later but today we checked online for we had heard about Hank Smoot's death. How surprised and saddened we are to hear the news about Bobby! We have fond memories of both you and Bobby from living in Big Spring and attending church together. Please know that you are very much in our thoughts and prayers today, Merle. We are so very sorry for your loss ........With love, Sue and Harold Smith
