Dear Family –
Sorry to hear of Bobs passing. He certainly lived a long, full life. I have fond memories of Bob and you guys from the May City days! We had a lot of fun working, bowling & drinking. Dave, it was nice seeing and talking with you at Westdale Bowling Center a while back. It was good to reminisce about Brad and your relationship with him. Thinking of you during this difficult time.
Fondly, BJ Trickey
John and Michelle,we are so sorry about your father..you two and your family will be in our prayers….Love Uncle Carrol and Aunt Shirleyw
I will always remember the times that Bob and I worked together at Hertz.
Bob and I may not have always seen eye to eye all things, but he made an interesting time working together.
May the Lord continue to watch over all of Bob’s family. I am sure Bob will let him know if he misses something.
My deepest sympathy to the family.
My family grew up with the Braumann kids, and Barb was (and is a good friend). I worked at Qualex when Evron did and he was liked by everyone there that knew him.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I have many happy memories of your Dad and I am sorry to hear of his passing I know he will be missed by your family.
I will be thinking and praying the Braumann family
Bev (old friend of Johns)
Karen, Scott and boys-our thoughts and prayers are with you.
May you find comfort, strength and love from those around you.
We are very sorry to hear of your loss. We have been a neighbor to Bob for many years. From the first day we met, he came to our door and told us he didn’t want our grass clippings to go on his drive. 🙂 To all the moments he would stop or wave to us. He will be missed.
I met Bob at the Gazette, and he and I became dear friends. We ate out a lot and often discussed the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress. He was a father to me and is dearly missed. God bless.
