To my Buddy Mr. Molitor
It’s hard to find the right words to express the depth of my sorrow at your passing. Over the past ten years, you became so much more than Elizabeth’s father—you were a mentor, a friend, and a source of endless laughter and wisdom. Your sharp wit and the way you loved to bust my chops always made our time together so enjoyable.
I’ll deeply miss our conversations about baseball, politics, and the many lessons I learned from your stories about the past. You treated me with immense respect and made me feel like a part of your family. Your presence in my life was a true blessing, and the void you’ve left behind is immense.
Thank you, Mr. Molitor, for the incredible impact you’ve had on my life. Your legacy of love, laughter, and wisdom will live on in our memories. I will carry your spirit with me always, and I will forever be grateful for the time we had together.
With heartfelt sorrow and deepest respect.
One of the greatest men on this planet and he will be missed. So many stories to laugh at and that is how I will remember him. God bless the family and hope you will smile like me on the great man he was.
So many great memories! So many years……went way too fast !
Our deepest condolences to all of you. We pray that you find peace and comfort in the memories of Bob.
