Bob, sad to hear of Bev's passing. I remember what a great person she was, beautiful inside and out; helpful, kind, and always professional in her business decisions. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Bob and family,
Condolences to you on Bev’s passing. Even though her struggles with disease have ended, it is difficult to say goodbye. Bev and I often recall the BOBBEV and BEVBOB license plates you had when you lived across the street from us; they say so much about your life together. Happy memories will sustain you now.

Bob, so sorry to hear of the loss of your beautiful Bev. I remember her well from my childhood in Cedar Rapids (I am Ida Mae's niece) and always thought of her as the most glamorous woman I had ever seen. What a wonderful life you had together as husband and wife. Blessings to you all, Erika

Bob, first started working with Bev Krause at Zachar Realty, then Larry Sharp Realtors and what a fireball she was - and that light never faded. Bright, cheerful, spunky and one hell of a salesperson! Then she became Bev Hanson and the relationship between you two was so enviable. You two were absolutely meant to become one. You complemented each other in so many ways, always there for the other and an incredible team, both personally and professionally. You and Bev were such a joy to work with - some of my fondest memories. I love you both.

Bob,
My thoughts and prayers surround you and your family at this difficult time. I had the pleasure of first meeting you and Bev during our involvement in the Cedar Rapids Chamber of Commerce membership committee back in the 90's. Your zest for life, love and respect for each other has always been apparent and magnetic to be around. I am sad for you and for the loss of your soulmate. God Bless.

Bob, You are a lucky man to have had Bev as your soulmate for so many years. The two of you complimented each other in all the right ways; she being the creative risk taker type, you occasionally having to pull the reins a bit. I fondly remember Bev's sense of humor and how it tickled you as much as it did all of us. Bev gets proper credit for being a trailblazer for women in business, but we all know how much sacrifice both of you made to break that glass ceiling. Most of all, Bev and Bob, Bob and Bev, Bev/Bob was a love story without any comparison of which I am aware. And that, my friend, is why I say and know that you are a lucky man. I wish that Janice and I could be there to share stories, but alas, we are traveling. Please know how much we have thought and talked about the good ol' days with both of you. And also please pass along our sympathies to Randy and Vicki.

Bob, We have such fond memories of Bev (and you) sitting close by at mass at St. Jude's. She always would hurry over and talk to the twins, Autumn and Anthony after mass. Bev was one classy lady. Thinking of you!

So sorry Bob and family. Bev was my idol and I loved her. Always a class act I admired. Remember so many cards game and poker parties. Glad I got to visit with you both a couple years ago at Mercy. She is now a beautiful angel in heaven. I think of her often.
