I worked with Bob at Morgan Keegan and Co. I am forever grateful for his caring friendship, laughter, and love of music.
I will never forget that he made me see my doctor after the crash because I needed to. He was right.
When he met Judith, he was the happiest! He also loved his family. I can’t be at the visitation today. Sending love, hugs, and prayers for peace and comfort to Judith and family, and Williams’ Family.
My thoughts are with you today.

Sleep well Bob.
Judith, I send my love to you from overseas. Prayers and comfort to you all.
Marriage was good for him and he was very happy when Judith came into his life.
Rest in peace my friend!
