Robert, Bob to his friends, came to Tennessee to find people to play music with. He found friends at both the Manchester and McMinnville Senior Centers, and was part of the band (drummer) at John Henry’s in Doyle. It made him so happy to have such good friends. A special thanks to Donna and Bruce for being with him at the end, so that he knew he wasn’t alone. Please don’t be sad, Bob knew he was going to meet Jesus, and he was okay with that. Bob also loved his church and his church family, and they love him.
