I first met Bob as a child. Our father's coon hunted together. We hadn't seen each other for years until he started at waupaca foundry. We shared many fond memories and really enjoyed each others company. What a great man. You will forever be missed. Shannon

Shawn,
We share in you and your family's grief. We know that we do not share the same grief as family must do. Please know that I had the utmost respect for Robert. I enjoyed working with him, and having him perform the tasks we asked of him at our shop. He was always a humble servant. Robert will be missed by many people. Thank you for sharing Robert with those of us who were in need of his service and expertise. We know the difficulties of running a small business and taking time for family.
If there is anything I can do to make your time of healing any less painful please do not hesitate to ask .
Your's in Christ,
Dan Gunn
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord,
And He delights in his way.
Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down;
For the Lord upholds him with His hand.
Psalm 37:23-24

Shawn & Family - - My very deepest and most sincere sympathy. May Jesus, Mary and Joseph surround you with Their loving arms during this most difficult and very sad time, and always. Altho we prayed hard for a miraculous healing - God had other plans. Robert's life is not over, it has changed. You will meet again. We walk by faith and not by sight. Know that you all will continue to be in my prayers for strength. I am so sorry for your loss.
We met and worked with Robert in some of his many service projects, Don't remember which group but you always knew Robert Lea was there. Great guy, such a shame to lose him. The whole community will feel his absence.

I think all who knew Robert were privileged to meet him. I, as well as all my friends, family and community are suffering a great loss and our hearts are aching for his entire family. May God's love shine through the support and friendships that will conspire through this difficult time. We will miss his contagious smile and great sense of humor.
