I am very sad as I write this condolence. Bob was the best friend a person could want in this lifetime. He was so kind and caring about his friends . Yes,. he was a true gentleman. He loved a good joke and a good laugh. He had a sparkle of deviltry in his eyes. We would go to the Bloomsburg fair, the Troy fair, and the Tioga County fair for many years. He was like a kid at a fair wanting to see everything and eating his way through, sampling all the good things to eat. Bob was truly young at heart and loved a good time . He was proud of all the awards he won for Morgan horses. It was one of my great joys in life to have Bob as a dear friend.

I am saddened by the passing of Bob. I have fond memories of him as my pipe organ teacher during my high school years in the 60's, a wonderful neighbor, friend, fellow church-goer, him inspiring and encouraging me concerning music, him making fun of my driving, and his many, many kindnesses. May the Lord God comfort his family in their time of sorrow.

Bob was a great, great man...a true gentleman! We always enjoyed visiting with him, whether is was in our dealership, at his store, at Eddie’s or The Brick...it was always a fun conversation. He will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I knew Mr. Dunham through a mutual friend. I always found "Bob" very pleasant and funny...usually cracking jokes. Bob certainly was an admired and respected prominent man in the community. His loss certainly leaves a void. Prayers for his family and friends. God's peace and comfort be with those mourning. Rest in peace Mr. Dunham as you bring smiles to those who you are with now.

Bob holds a special place in my heart. He was a good friend, the kind that are rare, and was always gracious and hospitable. He earned his wings a thousand times over. Heaven is better now because of this man.

Bob was a wonderful person. He did have a delightful smile and mischief in his eyes. I knew Bob from the neighborhood since we were kids. I loved roller skating in the barn. Really good times until the guys turned the lights off and we were skating in the dark. Bob also used to drive me to Wellsboro during college breaks since I went to Rider College in Lawrenceville, NJ and he went to Westminster Choir College in Princeton, NJ. Those were awful rides since we had to go across Route 6 since Route 80 had not opened yet.
I have to thank Bob for most of the furniture I have in my house. We always were able to come to a good price and The furniture at Dunham's was Lazy Boy which fixes any of their furniture that breaks. I was so shocked to hear that Bob had passed away. I didn't even know that he was sick. I found out from Lamont Satterly who was also a neighborhood kid. Lamont wrote a very special remembrance of Bob.
I am sorry that I won't be able to attend the memorial service for Bob since I will be having surgery at that time. However, he will be forever remembered as a good friend and neighbor. I am really sad about this. I still can't believe that Bob is gone.

Bob was a gentleman. His eyes seemed to sparkle with his head tipped gently to one side and a friendly greeting. We send our love and many thoughts to all of the Dunham family.

My sympathy to the family. I knew Bob from the local National Guard, we did a thing or two contrary to military rules and got into some trouble on that one! Bob was a practical joker back then, he left a sack of his horses manure on my front step , I knew right away where if came from. Wished he had recorded some of his organ music. Also, a good salesman.

Bob was a wonderful friend and we had many nice visits, both in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware and here in Fort Lauderdale. He was an inspiration to many folks and a most generous to those in need! I will miss his friendship and his wonderful smile and sense of humor!

What can I say? This man was so special to me- and it is a great loss to all of us We were good friends during our high school years- My gram, Hilda Bailey. cooked for the family for some time- they loved her Swedish meatballs! Bob and I got in a little trouble when he took his parent's good car during a snowstorm- got stuck in a snowdrift and Grandma got out of the car and fell into a snowdrift! We often laughed at that memory! There were other events on which I should not comment! What a great person- He will be sorely missed
