To the Schwingendorf family my thoughts and prayers are with you. Every time I visit Mom and Dad I look over the fence and I still see myself playing in the yard or swimming with Robert and James. Those were days that will never escape my memory. I always respected Mr. Schwingendorf and he will be missed.

Dear Family - I'm very sorry for the loss you have suffered and the grief you must be experiencing at this time. There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someone so beloved. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that Mr. Bob is in God's memory and will one day be restored back to life in peaceful, paradise conditions with no more suffering, tears, sickness, or death (Acts 24:15, Psalm 37:29, Rev. 21:3, 4).
