On behalf of the Edward & Jean Dexter family, with deepest sympathy, we wish all of you much comfort, love and peace. We loved Uncle Bob like a father, especially after our own father passed away so young. We have many cherished memories of him from when we were children. May all of you be comforted by memories of your Dad, Grandpa and Uncle as well. May he rest in peace with his beloved Dee. We will keep you in our hearts and in our prayers.
Much Love from Auntie Jean, Lisa, and Deb Dexter
