I counted Bob as a friend and fellow graduate of Seymour. There were many of us that attended the whole 9 years together.
This past week, I spoke to his mother, Wilma, and heard Bob's life story since we parted ways after our 1961 graduation. To say that his life was easy up to the end would not be true. He cared for his wife, Karen, which was a show of love for her. Karen remains in a care facility for her dementia.The last 3 months since his cancer diagnosis went swiftly. Wilma grieves over the fact that she did not get to see him before he passed.
Jack and I were so surprised and sad to read of Bob's passing. I was writing a sympathy note to Karen but after reading Gary's comment, I will send it to Bob's mother, Wilma. Gary: do you have an address for her? I presume her name is Wilma Mulder?? Thanks.
~~ Just looking at this photo of Bob reminds me of the years at Seymour and at Christian High we shared. It has been a long time but I remember him warmly. He was really a good person. My sympathy to his family. Mary-Claire Vander Wal (Barton)
Bob was a great friend, interestingly we were born on the same date, and we were also bapitzed at the same church.
I remember is strong work ethics, and his quick wit, and love for his parents, we shared many fun filled events, and I always remember his dedication to his church. The world has lost a wonderful man, but we know he is now with our Lord, and I am deeply sorry for Karen's current health challenges.
