Uncle Bob and Aunt Loretta From the first time i met them, a forever bond was created in my heart. It was as if i had known them forever. May your sadness be filled with so many wonderful memories you shared and your hearts be filled with the love he gave with his gentle, loving heart.

We were so blessed to have them visit us and have them over for dinner at our home in Florida.
We also visited them at there home in West Virginia. They showed us around their home that day, and their were so many wonderful stories that were shared and non-stop laughter just as it was the day when they visited us.
Unle Bob showed us the beautiful hand-made grandfather clocks he built and created. Uncle Bob had many different talents. One was creating many different things of wood.
Uncle Bob also loved collecting cookie jars. We were so amazed at his collection. The day we were there, Uncle Bob even offered me a pick of one of his many pieces he had collected over the years. but instead, i chose something he himself had made from his so woodworking shop he himself had built. Needless to say, we had a lot of laughter of my choice. I choose rather than a cookie jar.
My choice was a
paper towel holder that was made like a old time out house built out of his wood shop. We had such a wonderful visit with them that day. We will forever carry those special moments and memories we made in our hearts forever.
one day, we will not live in different states nor eat at different tables, but we shall dwell in the house of our Lord and savior Jesus at his table altogether.
Until we meet again,
Teddy & Kathy Goodson

I remember him as a fellow teammate from our days of RHS football. I always had great respect for him as a teammate and friend. My sincere condolences to the family.
