Condolences
The family of Robert Lyle Reinsvold has received the following condolences.
Shelly: I was shocked and saddened to hear of Bert's passing. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. If you ever need anything don't be afraid to ask for our help. We'll miss seeing his smiling face at the Eagles but will always remember the fun times, especially Mexico 2009!
Thoughts and prayers go out to all of Robert's family and friends. Robert & I grew up together with our extended camping families and the two of us were always on our BMX bikes or on Norma's golf cart. We travelled near and far and would always raise heck on our bikes; either at a local campout or a regional or national rally. We lost touch later in life and since his passing I have been reading what I could through Facebook and it's obvious that Robert turned into a great man who was beloved by many. Take care Lyle, Norma and Cindy.
Dear Norma and Lyle, Cindi and Reinsvold family, Please accept our sincere sympathy for your loss of Robert. May you find courage and faith to carry on. God Bless. Ted and Carol Adams of Sunnydale Lane.
I am very sorry for your loss, Every time I came into Cub, Robert always had something to tell me or just wanted to talk. I knew him for many years and enjoyed visiting with Him. Michelle I know you will miss him greatly, and also to the rest of the family you lost a very great person.

To All the FAMILY:
Can't believe it! So young. My prayer book is getting full, but always room for one more. I worked with Robert,
not Bob, he always reminded me he was not a "Bob" but Robert, at Cub a long time ago in the produce department.
Many good times and laughs. Could always tell when Krysta and Brooke came through the front doors to see their
Dad. He was a part of my life, I will hold onto a lot of memories. Bless you all!
