God looked around His garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon this earth, and saw your tired face. He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on earth again. He saw that the road was getting rough and the hills are hard to climb, so He closed your weary eyelids and whispered, "Peace Be Thine." It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home.

(Eric) Kersey, Fisher; grandchildren, Brittany Louise Chrysler Evans, Brett A. Kersey, Quinten (Cynthia) DeVault and Sarah DeVault; great-grandchildren, Lexi Williams, Jason Jackson and Jashawna Jackson; and brother, Frank (Irene) DeVault, Bloomington.
He was preceded in death by his parents, four brothers and four sisters.
Bob had worked at the DeWitt County Co-op in Clinton for many years. He was an Army veteran of the Korean conflict. He was a life member of Joe Williams American Legion Post 55 and life member of Fred G. O'Malley Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6190, both of Farmer City

Note: I have not been able to connect Lexi (Alexis ?) Williams, Jason and Jashawna Jackson to the family of Robert Lee "Bob" DeVault Sr. I suspect that they are not true biological descendants.
