I have worked closely with Bob for several years at Travelers and I have known him to be a man of integrity and someone who is always willing to help with whatever you ask. We spent a lot of time together traveling to the PCC and Postal Forum events and had some good times and good food on those trips along with getting some work in :). I have learned a lot from him over the years and he will be truly missed. My condolences to the Barnard family, may you be comforted in knowing that his spirit lives on in eternal peace.
It was my pleasure to have known Bob not only as a customer but more importantly my friend and golf buddy. GOD bless the family. We will miss you till we see you again.
It has been a pleasure and privilege to have known such a great man. Bob was one the most humble, kind and down to earth person I have ever known. May God bless Nancy and the entire family and bring comfort through precious memories. Bob will be greatly missed.
Rip Bob. Never ever forget all the great times we had growing up you’ve always been like a big brother to me. My deepest sympathies to nancy and the boys.
I only met Bob a few times in passing, and never really got to know him. But our sons were best of friends for years and I had the opportunity to observe them together many times as they grew up and learned to navigate the joys and challenges of life’s adventure together. Much can be known about a man by the legacy he leaves in his children, and based on that evidence it is clear Bob was a good man, husband, and father. The world is better for his influence, and he will be greatly missed. Our prayers will be with all the family in the coming days. We are very sorry for your loss.
My condolences and deepest sympathies goes out to you family. There’s comfort in knowing there’s no more pain and God’ got him in his arms.
Bob, It has been good knowing you from our first meeting when you came to The Travelers Data Center.
I’m deeply sorry for your loss. I hope the words found at Revelation 21:4 brings comfort.
