A Successful Man
By Bessie Anderson Stanley
That man is a success —
who has lived well, laughed often and loved much;
who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children;
who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;
who leaves the world better than he found it;
who has never lacked appreciation of earth’s beauty or failed to express it;
who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had.
I only met Mr Baskerville a few times but was impressed by his gentle nature and the love he had for his wife Pansy. My condolences to his daughter Dawn and other family members. He and Pansy are together once again. God bless
My condolences to the family
A Letter for Bob, my buddy.
Today I write with a heavy heart. I am at a loss as to where to start. Therefore, I will write my thoughts, comparably to how we talk.
I keenly remember, when you and mom met, and then married and moved to Tennessee. You, the kind, caring and loving person that you are became an integral part of my life. Suddenly I am at a loss, left only to cherish the moments, the memories, of our time together.
Bob, my buddy, when you and mom set your sights on pursuing an unknown journey by moving to Tennessee, I was impressed. Your pursuit of a new life together at that time represented a blank canvass for only you two to create. That journey, now complete, provided years of fun, love, and support enjoyed by many friends, but especially our family.
I remember, the times you picked me up from the airport. We would stop at a fast food joint, (your choice) break bread and talk. You shared your life, the good, the bad, and the ugly; I listened and I learned. Your wisdom provided a roadmap of guidance for even me to follow.
Bob, my buddy,
I admired how you shared your own accomplishments in life, and how you encouraged our young family members to do the same. You mentored, and instructed the young ones. I am not sure if I ever told you, by listening to you, I chose to seek further education, and become and educator.
You and mom, as I refer to as “You Two” were amazing role models. Decade after decade, you both unselfishly provided love, support, and care for our family and anyone else in need.
When it became apparent that you and mom would require ongoing healthcare, I was, prepared to give back to you, that what I observed you two gave, for so many years.
Bob, my buddy – I hope you are listening, and that you know I will be okay.
During the past few years, you endured extraordinary health challenges. At times, the pain and fear in your face would show, however you rarely complained. You demonstrated immense love and trust that we shared each time I arrived and walked through the door. You jumped out of your chair, greeted me with a hug and kiss, and uttered these words; “I’m so glad to see you.” You persevered with immense courage and strength. Together with your doctors, we managed overcome many hurdles. You are my hero.
I know you two were excited about moving back to New York. Unfortunately, that plan now squandered. Watching you and Mom struggle, in your battle with COVID, I knew, as God knew, with Him would be a better place for “You Two.” Together, and still in love, you are in Heaven. R.I.P – my buddy. You and mom.
The love and memory of you shall never pass away.
I Love You – Your daughter and buddy Marie
My deepest condolences to the entire Baskerville family. Love, The Alexis Family and The Hayes Family.
Sending prayers to your family. Love, Tonya L. Cantlo
