So sorry for your loss. Bob was my dad's boss. Many moms ago, my dad Richard Taylor thought so much of him. I remember Bob tried to get my dad to buy that waterside. I really enjoyed the time there, and the time I talked to Bob. My sister and i were really little when we first met Bob. He'll definitely be missed. Prayers for the family. May God give the family comfort and keep the family in his hands. Claudia there's alot of good memories. I had no idea. This is from Richard Taylor youngest daughter.
