We were so very, very sorry to hear of Bob’s passing. You may not remember me but I worked at Duval Center from 1971 to 1986. I worked with Bob on several projects through those years. He was a good man. May God bless you and your family with peace and strength through this difficult time.
I remember Bobby as one of the cool older cousins I saw when my family visited Uniontown. After reading what others said here, it is clear he was a wonderful person he was. My prayers are with him and his family.
Dear Connie, Jenna and Amanda, Your Tribute was so Special! My Thoughts and Prayers are with you at this sad time. May God Bless You and guide you throughout the days, weeks and months ahead and give you Peace.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. I am glad I was able to spend time with Bobby and to be a friend. Booby made me laugh so much and always was funny when he was at ADC. He was very caring man when you were sick he cried on my shoulder to help you and I promised I would be at the house and help both of you. He was a special man with a lot of love for his family, the Tribute was beautiful..
May light perpetual shine upon Bob
My deepest condolences for your family. Mr. K was my seconomy father in life. We all spent many good times together. He will be missed deeply.
What a wonderful man. Words can not express my sympathies to you Jenna, Connie and Amanda. Your home was like my second home and I will always treasure the memories and fun we created on Raven Avenue with “Meteorologist Bob” on our tails. I am a better person for having known him and I thank you for allowing me into your lives. Jenna and Amanda – your dad has to be so proud of you both, what amazing, outstanding women you both have become. You will have endless stories to tell that beautiful granddaughter. Connie – you two are my second set of parents, you let me get away with things and included me in so much of your lives, I will never forget and can never repay. You are all in mine and Chance’s thoughts and prayers. We love you all so much.
May the love of God surround you and your family during this difficult time
May you come to know that the love of God is with you always,
May your memories of Robert Krzysiak, give you peace, comfort and strength…
Rest now in the arms of our Lord your work on earth is complete.
I thank you for your service and my Freedom. You will not be forgotten.
My thoughts and prayers are with the family of…..
US National Guard Veteran, Robert Krzysiak, “A True American Hero” God Bless†
