I am so sorry to learn of Bob's passing. My Mom (Edith Wells Dyson) was his Aunt. I remember a visit to Uncle Ralph's in IN and Bob took me for my first motorcycle ride. Later on our numerous trips to TN, Mom always stopped by the car lot for a quick "Hello" and hug from Bob before making her rounds thru the "Country." Thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am sorry to learn of Bob's passing. (His father, Ralph Wells, and my Mother (Edith Wells Dyson) were brother and sister. I live in Marion, VA where Bob was born. We played together as children in VA and in TN when my Mom was visiting her family. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to his family. Blessings, Frances Dyson Ferguson

So sorry to learn of Bob's passing. I recall playing with him and his sisters in Tennessee when visiting Pawpaw and Momma Lou, as well as visiting him with my mother (Edith Wells Dyson) when she would be making one of her "rounds." My thoughts will be with his family.
