To: Mrs. Colbert, Laura, Stephanie, Stephen & Family
My deepest condolences for your loss. I have the fondest memories of Dr. Colbert during Stephens birthday sleepovers. He would prepare your huge yard into a football field for we grade school boys to play tackle football. As I drive by the old house, I’m often reminded of him and his large trees. How he often would stand in the yard and gaze upward to those trees. Oh and that Kegerator….
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless
Scotty
PHYLLIS god bless you and the children at the at the time big john
Stephen,
I am sorry to hear that your Dad died. My sincerest condolences to you and your family
To Phyllis and family,
We’re so sorry to hear of Dr. Colbert’s passing. Roger owes a debt of gratitude to Bob for all his help and encouragement, beginning over 40 years ago. God bless you, Bob, for all the lives you have touched with your kindness and dedication. You will be greatly missed.
We were saddened to hear of Dr. Colbert’s passing. Roger will be forever indebted to Bob for all the help and encouragement Bob gave while Roger was considering a career in medicine. Bob was a patient mentor, a generous employer, and a good friend. He will be missed by all who knew him.
It has been years since I last saw Doctor Colbert but he was a wonderful, kind and caring man the world will be a sadder place without him may God hold him in his arms and give him the peaceful rest he deserves. May God be with you Phyllis and your children.
My family and I thought the world of “Chip”. My mother Mary Williams was his nurse when he worked in Trumann, Arkansas in the mid-1960s. He was a visitor in our home many times and remained a dear friend after he went on to train as a radiologist. He spent time helping me with my high school science project and embarrassed me as often as he could with his teasing when I was a teenager. God love him! I still own a cameo necklace he gave me as a high school graduation gift. My mother always had a special friendship with him. Mom last spoke to him a few months before she passed away in 2010. She was 92.
Those special memories of Bob will keep him with us in our hearts. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Bob’s lived ones.
The family of Mary Williams: Susie Dent, Diana Jones and Don Williams.
Stephanie… So sorry for your loss…may god comfort you and your family in this sad time.
