Dear Claire,
Please know that my prayers are with you and your family as you mourn and celebrate Bob.
I do not know how many years I have known you all, but many...first in Sierra Club and then birding at Sabine Woods.
Yes, I agree with many. Bob was the epitome of a truly kind man.
We all were blessed to have had him in our lives.
May you and yours feel God's presence during this time.
Blessings, Linda

Dear, sweet, Collier family, esp Claire, Anne, Stephen and Kyle, I met Bob when I served on his every-other-Monday-morning teller committee. How I admired his quiet efficiency and attention to detail. And how I loved the weeks we received satsumas!! Later I found out about his biking and hiking, and today I read of his birding, military service, that he taught SS and sang, and had many other interests. I'm not surprised to learn of these: he was a true intelligent Renaissance man. Claire, everyone knows your sweet smile. Anne, each time I volunteered with you was a pleasure. Stephen and Kyle, thank you for being Daniel's friend. He had just mentioned you last week. You've all been a treasure to our family. "Blessed to the Lord is the death of His Saints", but many prayers and thoughts and much love and shared loss are with you here on earth during the coming days.

I will never forget this wonderful, honorable gentleman, gentle man. Every time I fix the recipes that he and Claire shared with us at the Golden Triangle Audubon Society, I will have a twinkle in my eye of fond remembrance. May he rest in peace, and Claire and family remain strong, Bob was such a positive influence in many lives, we are all blessed for knowing him.

We are so saddened to hear about Bob. What a quintessential southern gentleman he was; always gracious, friendly and smiling. Our prayers are with your whole family.
