Happy Birthday to my wonderful brother! Our family would give anything to be able to celebrate it with you today. We are able to find joy today, however, in the fact that we know you are celebrating your birthday with your mom, Marge, in Heaven for the first time in 6 years. I don't know if Heaven has Coors Light but if it does, we are toasting with you today to a life well served to two wonderful people. We love you Bob!

My brother was the bright light in our family. He is loved by so many. He was so loving and caring and would give the shirt off his back to help anyone. My brother was 17 when he enlisted in the army because he felt it was his duty to protect us all. My mom had to sign papers for him so he could serve. I know she did this with a heavy heart and fear she may never see her son again. My brother was a paratrooper and served his country with pride. He proudly displays a flag at his house. He always took time to talk to his fellow vets and neighbors, and had such a love for his family and pets. He will be greatly missed.

The last comment I wrote on this site was on behalf of my mother, Olive Coonradt, who adored Bob. As for me....I am going to miss my big brother Bob more than he would have ever been able to imagine. Bob was one of the most amazing people I have ever met in my life. His kind and gentle spirit was something that I always adored and his incredible sense of humor was something that I always looked forward to every time we saw each other or spoke on the phone. I can't believe I will never get another Bob hug or be able to laugh out loud again from one of his ridiculously hysterical comments. I am going to miss him so much and I am truly heartbroken...

Mardell and the entire family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Bob was one of the most caring, unselfish people I've ever had the pleasure to know. His big smile and infectious laugh, along with his comedic wit, will forever be etched in my memory. I know how much you all loved him and I am right there with you!
