    Dear Mary & Family,

    I was saddened to learn of Bob’s
    passing. I have fond memories of
    working with Bob at the KCS, both as a Yard Clerk and in the Accounting Dept. I’m sorry I am unable to attend his services.
    I pray God’s comfort and peace for you and your family.

    Condolences to the Sarver family. Please be assured that one day we will see our loved ones again happy and healthy. Jesus promised at John 5:28 & 29 that “all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out.” I pray this promise along with loving memories of Bob fill your heart with comfort and peace.
