Tom Sheryl Myers says
Bob,
You have our deepest sympathy. We are greatful that we were able to meet you and Sandy at Don and Mary’s 2 years ago. In just the short time we visited, we could tell that you two are wonderful people, and really enjoyed being in your company while gem hunting and visiting etc. Know we are thinking of you and your family and feeling some of your pain.
Knowing you and Sandy for the short time we have, I could tell how much you loved her and she loved you. While I know that grieving is necessary for us all at times like this, I know that Sandy is still there with you in spirit and would not want you to dwell on grieving, but be happy she is in a better place now. Perhaps sometime when Don and Mary are in Indiana again, we could all get together for a Myers, Renfro, Dew celebration and have a few beers and some food and invite Sandy to be there in memory and spirit.
Meanwhile just try to enjoy the good memories and when you’re feeling down try to think of something she might say to cheer you up, knowing she wouldn’t want you to be sad.
We love you man

Gerry and Jamie says
Bob
Jamie and I were in Michigan for several days and on our return saw Sandy’s obit in the paper. We are so very, very sorry. She was a great, fun gal. We will always remember how good she was to Therman (you too). I’m sure she has brought Therman up to date by now on the neighborhood going’s on and the status of his grass and all. Please know we would have been there for support had we known.

Troy Tracy Weber says
Bob,
We only met Sandy one time but we could tell she was a wonderful person. We also know the love that you shared together was monumental. We are so sorry we were out of town during this time, but we know with the friends you both have you were in great hands. And we also know that she is in even greater hands. We always said that there is only one better man then “the Dew” and now she is with that man. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and always will be.
We love you man

Dear Bob, Don, Brian and Jeff,
This is Robin, Jeff’s Ex-wife. My Mom just found out yesterday about Sandy’s passing. I was so sorry to hear about it. My heart just breaks for all of you. If we would of known sooner, we would of been there for you. I was shocked and heart-broken to hear of this. Sandy was a wonderful person, a great wife and mother. I’m sorry we lost touch, I always liked Bob and Sandy very much. I know you are all in pain, and I pray for God to comfort you. Please know that my whole family is praying for you, and that she is happy and in a much better place, and someday we will all see her again. Please let me know if you need anything, I think you’re still living on Wallace. I would love to come and see you. I’ll bring my rugrats. My daughter Ashley just turned 9 on Veteran’s Day, and my son Benjamin will be 5 on January 9th. They are absolutely beautiful and extremely intelligent, (just ask thier Grandmother). I see you have 3 grand-daughters. That’s great.
Once again, you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Please let me know if there is anything I can do for you.
God Bless You All,
Robin (Reed-Dew) Robbins
