To Vicki, the family and staff of Knox and Brothers funeral home. I wish I had the words to say that could serve two purposes. One would be to describe the character of one of the most respected men that I ever had the pleasure of meeting in Maysville. Bob was the embodiment was class, integrity and kindness and that is what I will truly miss about him. My other purpose would be to provide the family with comfort that our loss, your loss is heavens eternal gain. God must have needed a great undertaker, funeral director, husband, man and friend and when he looked down he saw the best in Bobby. We the family of Bethel Baptist Church will continue to keep you in prayer and please know that we are available to serve you in the weeks and months to come.

Vicki,
So sorry to hear about Robert's passing.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. He will surely be missed.

I grew up with the Brothers' family and as a child spent many hours at their home, playing softball or riding horses. I have fond memories of being around Mr. Brothers and of days when he and my Dad were on the Washington City Council. He was a tremendous comfort when I lost my parents and I was so thankful he was handling the arrangements.  

Vicki, Shawn, Cindy and family, my thoughts and prayers are with you.  Bob was a great man.  Not only do you loose a a part of your family, but Maysville has lost a great citizen.  I will always think of him fondly and I will keep you in my thoughts during this sad time.

So sorry for your loss, Vicki -- and for yours, David and Mike -- and for everyone else who worked at Knox and Brothers and knew Bob.

God bless you all.
