Mr. Hermanson was my 4th and 5th Grade Webelos Den Leader and perhaps the one reason that I stayed in Boy Scouts after I first crossed over.

Bob was very caring and warm and always knew how to encourage scouts.

He will be deeply missed!

For my cousin Bob. I will remember you for your wit and sense of humor. I think we both are somewhat the same in that area. I remember especially the times when we were young and as our parents would visit, you,Randy, Dave,and I would be playing. That was when life was easy and there were no cares. You gave your time and talent in many ways and for that your family is proud. You will be missed, you are now in God's hands.
