So very sorry for your sorrow. I will keep him & family inn my prayers!!!! I think my nrothers know him, Jim & Ken Lemal.
My heart breaks thinking about my cousin Bobby being gone. I will always remember the summer weeks our families got to be together ever year. We always had fun what ever we did as long as we were together. I will never forget the 4 of us climbing the rock hill together when we were kids. I didn’t quite make it & slid all the way down. We even experienced hurricane Fredrick together. Prayers for my Aunt Irene & cousin Johnny & the rest of Bob’s family. Sending you all Love & “Hug’s” ðŸ’â¤ï¸
Dear Irene, I am a blast from the past at the hospital. Debbie Clayton Walsh. I am so sorry to hear about Bob’s accident. My heart just sank for you. I am glad to hear he got to enjoy some of his retirement in Texas, I was just down there in June visiting Brenda Virture. They lived once in Round Rock which was close to Georgetown. I am sorry I cannot attend the service I would have loved seeing you but I already had made other plans. I hope you are doing well and can handle your loss with Gods strength. Many Blessings for you and John
Dear Irene and family,
It was a beautiful memorial mass celebrated at St. Paul’s for your son. May you keep the many wonderful memories alive in your heart until you one day meet again.
