Cathy Mills and Cecil Naftel, February 21, 2022 Bob truly lived his life by his mantra of Faith, Family & Friends! I was fortunate to know him in his professional life as a Penney partner, in the stores and Home Office for over 40 years. But as importantly, I had the opportunity to fellowship with him at Prestonwood Baptist North, were we were both members. I also had the opportunity of working closely with his son Alan and daughter in law Rochelle, at the JCPenney Home Office. He will truly be missed by many who knew & loved him. R.I.P. Mr. Langford.
Manny Fernandez , February 20, 2022 The coaching session Bob gave me before I took my first store is something I will never forget. Not only was he spot on with his leadership, but there are tips I have passed on to many store managers I have coached in the last 20 years of my career. Bob was the very best!
Jim Reese, February 20, 2022 Bob and I worked together in the JC Penney Southwest Regional Office. He was an admired leader and stayed close the Penney District Managers. In Bob’s role he traveled a lot visiting Penney stores on the Southwest Region. Following retirement It great to see Bob again as we attended the North Campus of Prestonwood Baptist. He was in a leadership position at Prestonwood Baptist and has been missed for some time because of his illness. We know he is now with the love of his life Jeanette. Terry Prindiville, February 20, 2022 To Bob Langford Family, Got to know Bob in St. Louis when he was my District Manager when I became a first time St. Manager. Then two years later when I became a District Manager Bob was the Regional Personnel Manager. In both cases Bob was a recipe for Myself and many others. A great listener and very methodical with his approach. We continued to be partners and friends for the duration. Please accept Linda and my sincere sympathies and prayers. Our Love Bruce and Linda Bruce Hill, February 19, 2022 Bob lived a life of truth. His example in life for me was how to continue to serve Christ and his church even after the death of Jeanette. His continued energy after grief has inspired me to want to do the same. I thank you, my friend.

I look forward to the day we join him in heaven with Jesus. Mel Mel Pugh, February 19, 2022 Mr. Langford came into my life in February of 1991. Since then and on the many occasions I visited my sister and brother in-law, he was always kind and genuinely interested in what was going on in my life. He never forgot a detail, and would always make me feel welcome, where ever we were. My deepest sympathies go to the Langford family. Bobby Dale was the epitome of a "stand-up" guy and truly lived his religion. May he rest in peace. Scott Gillett, February 19, 2022
