Deepest Sympathy to all Bob’s Family. We are at a loss for words like everyone else. Bob’s Beauitful Memories will forever be in our hearts. Uncle Jim & Aunt Lois
My husband and I would like to convey our deepest sympathy to the family and friends of your beloved Robert. We would like to share with you something that has brought us much comfort at a similar time in our lives. John 11:14-44 shares with us the experience of Jesus resurrecting Lazarus here on earth before the very eyes of those he loved. We can only imagine the tears of joy when we too are reunited with our dear loved ones. (John 5:28,29) Robert will surely be missed by many of those who’s lives he shared, remember the experiences you shared together and learn from them, hold them close to your heart and cherish them. May you find comfort from those who surround you at this very difficult time. Our sincere condolences to all of you.
RIP Robob
My deepest condolences for your loss. Bob and I were friends for 20+ years. I will miss him and his contagious laugh.
You are all in our thoughts and prayers. Bob spent alot of time down at our place when you lived next door growing up. He brought his toy tractors to our house because, as he said, his sisters would just break them! 🙂 Bob, Larry and Joe rode horses and bikes together and played for hours. Bob will be greatly missed-such a wonderful person-always a big smile and hello! God bless you all and hold you in his hands through this difficult time. Carolyn, Katie, Craig, Amber and Kris

Our heartfelt sympathy to the Adams family and friends. We often seen Bob at auctions and always had a good chat. Peter, Art Havens and Bob carpooled when they all worked at Beatrice. Bob was the last one to be picked up and had to sit in the back seat so we always called him ‘Back-seat Bob’ He would just laugh and shake his head when we would see him and greet him with our nickname. Whether it be RoBob or Back seat Bob he was a one of a kind, all around good guy.
Adams girls and families: We are very sorry for your loss. Robob was unique in so many ways; he always had a “grin” on his face, and something to say when he ran into someone he knew. Bob was a great friend to so many of us. He will be missed. RIP Robob!
