We first met the Rich's when we moved into our new home on 5th East in Murray, They were our first friends and our kids grew up together.
We remember Bob as a very good and generous person, always willing to help out. He taught Lyle Carpentry and to do about anything else pertaining to building. They worked on several building projects over the years, including installing the runway lights on the Stapleton International Airport in Denver. The last job they did together was building our Cabin in Salina Canyon.
Bob was a hard worker and would do anything he could to help other's. He had a sense of humor and was somewhat of a jokester.
He served his family and church well, he stayed strong in the gospel and was a good and faithful servant. "We'll miss you Bob." May God bless and your Family ----The Taylor's
Well where do I start with grandpa. He is an amazing man. I have a thousand and one memories of him that play over and over again. I can pick anyone of them and know they would be perfect to talk about. But there is one I want to talk about that means more then anything to me. There was one time I was helping him nail the stairway together and he was showing me how to hold the hammer, but I kept holding it how I wanted to. He told me if I did not hold it how he showed me I was going to hit my thumb. I had no care but to keep going on the way I was. Within a matter of moments I slammed my thumb and started to cry. The meaning of this story is do as your elders say because they are smarter then you are. I did not realize that for a long time. He is one of the smartest people I know and will always be in my heart day in and day out.
