Condolences Left For Robert Johnson
Rip bob. I remember I always making me smile when you’re dancing in your head that you would always wear. I could tell how much you love your kids and your grandkids. And you will be a special person that will always be missed. Thank you for giving me my best friend. I’ll make sure I take care of Lindsay until she can see you again

Dearest Bob, you quickly became one of my favorite people. We would tear up that dance floor, night after night. I take comfort in knowing you loved me. She called me your dancing queen. YOU were there for me through so much and I owe you so much. You were my protector and one of my dearest friends. Everyone loved you and rightly soo. You shined. I know your watching us all with love in your heart.
I’ll miss you my friend…tour dancing queen
