I have known Bob since our time at Tuskegee University. Rita was my college roommate and I was part of their wedding. Bob was a wonderful individual and he will be missed. My deepest condolences to Rita and the family.

I met Bob a year and a half ago when I moved next-door to him. He and his lovely wife started out as new neighbors and became good friends.
