Uncle Bob was the BEST! Love all the great memories we have of holidays and meeting for dinner. Yes, Uncle Bob, I'm keeping the "ole boy" in line! :) As Grandma Johnson would say, "You are a good man, Robert Sowash!" You will be greatly missed!

I was thinking of home this week and thought of you your home Tim and Tammy. I reconnected with your parents at my brother John's funeral and probably Barbs too. It's always sad to lose a parent. God be with you during this difficult time.

My sympathy to the family. While none of you know me, I grew up with Bob and his brother Dale while we lived on 24th Avenue in Moline. as kids. and where we did a lot of things together. I just happened to see about his passing in the paper.

I am terribly sorry to hear of Bob's passing. It was quite a while since I had seen him but have thought of him and Ethel often. Especially on their anniversary since I also share that special day - my birthday. Good thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Myself and many many employees of Rhythm City will miss him greatly. May God take the family in his hands and give them peace.

Oh Mike...he sure did love giving you grief. He was such an amazing man. His smile truly lit up the room and his laugh could be heard for miles. Thank you for the kind words and thank you for being so kind to him. He was truly a gem. Jenny😊

Special prayers and thoughts go out this special family that have been thru so much and have given to so many others thru out their lives. This will be very hard to deal with in the beginning, but while Mr. Sowash has gone to join many others in the heaven above, the family will stay strong thru memories of which there are so many. Luv to all of you!!!! from Vicki, Erikka, Jakey, Hachi, Dion, Payton!!!
