My older, favorite cousin is remembered with love.
To Bret and Danette my sympathy and love.
Bob and our families were together for holidays when I was
young. Though he was older, he always had time for us younger, silly cousins . We looked up to him and enjoyed him. Were proud if his golf game. May he rest in peace.

My heartfelt condolences to Helen and Bob's family. Bob was one of the last real men I knew. Many fond memories of goose hunting with Bob, Don Stehly, and my father in law, Wayne Tilberg. Wayne used to say that Bob "was tough as nails". Bob could make anything happen simply through sheer determination. Go rest high on the mountain Bob. I hope heaven is filled with lush valleys and plenty of green grass!

Bob was our neighbor back in the early 50’s. He was the oldest of the 4 Jorgensen boys. I used to hang around their house and listen to his mother play old ragtime music on a really old piano. Many memories with the Jorgensens. Sorry to hear of his passing. Was just thinking of the family not too long ago when his cousin Denny Pierson passed.
