Jeannette, please accept my deepest sympathies. Bob was a thoughtful and caring man, who was always happy to lend a helping hand. I'll always remember him for the help he freely offered when I was re-opening the plant. May you share the comfort of knowing that Bob is no longer suffering, and that he will live on in the memories of all those whose hearts and lives were touched by such a wonderful man.
