46 Years of Fundraising (Friend making)...

Our wonderful DaddyBob, my husband's father is retiring at the end of the summer and he was thrown an incredible retirement party last week. It was so fun to see lots of the friends he has made over the last 46 years. A life so well lived.  He is with out a doubt one of the best fundraisers in America but even more important- he is a disciple of Jesus Christ and has shared his love for Him with all people he has come in contact with. So thankful for this man. 
 Wonderful article on DaddyBob's work at Texas A&M.
Texas A&M Fundraiser- Bob Walker Retires After 46 Years...
 Don't these cakes look too beautiful to cut and eat?

 Clayton Williams said a few words...
 My handsome husband, Uncle Jim and DaddyBob...
 Clay Bright, son of Bum Bright...
The best part was being with family.
It's always too short, but always sweet...

 His grand kids from Colorado got flattops that day. So handsome...
 Precious girls..
 Always fun with this guy...
Randy Matson also spoke.
You may remember that he was a two
time Olympic medalist in the 1960's.
He is a wonderful, Godly man.
 After party get together...
So- congratulations to a wonderful man.
He is one of the best fundraisers but even more important-
he is a super Grandfather and loving man of God.
We love you DaddyBob!

Wow, looks like it was a nice way to honor an honorable man. Not many people working 46 years anywhere nowadays!
