Bob and Susan have been neighbors of ours in Tanglewood for quite a number of years. Susan was such a sweet person, and we will miss seeing Susan and Bob walking their pup, Abby. Susan and Bob were obviously devoted to each other, as well as their love of God. Always grateful to see Susan's beautiful smiling face all the time. Heartfelt prayers for Bob, Abby and the rest of her family. She will be greatly missed, but we know where she is, and we will see her again!! She will be rewarded for being a faithful servant of our Lord. Harry and Bonnie Marsh
