Dad,
Its been almost 3 weeks since you passed, but I hear you every day. You made such a tremendous impact on all of our lives. You are the funniest man- I have ever known. I will continue to find the humor in the most trying of times in your honor. All of my boys are already mimicing your manerisms. You definitely left your mark and touched many lives. I would not be where I am today without your encouragement. Thank you for all the great memories."I'm on my own."
Love, Lee(AKA Pinge Moo.)

Bob and I met through Toastmasters. He was always ready with a smile, a speech, and a helping hand. Plus we discovered we both lived in Lancaster and would run into each other all over town, often at one of the Wegmans coffee bars. It's hard to believe he'll never be sitting there ready to chat again.

We will all miss him greatly. He's gone to a better place to prepare the way for all of us.

Bobby - I'm going to miss you. Toastmasters is going to a little bit duller with you not around. I could always count on you to provide not only reasonable level headed advice - but to do it in such a humorous fashion that even when I didn't want to hear what you were saying - you made it palatable. I'll always remember our road trips to Regional events, and the times we enjoyed with other old TM friends there.
Rest easy old friend. There are neither Ah's, Ers, or Ums nor timing targets to worry about. Until we meet again at the great Toastmaster Meeting in the sky.

I shall not soon forget the twinkle in his eyes; the smile on his face; his wonderful sense of humor; his welcoming spirit. Bob's presence will be missed, but his memory remains with us. My sincerest condolences and prayers to his family and loved ones.

Bobby Brown helped launch our Toastmaster club. He was such a fun and energetic visitor. He made suggestions and set us on the right course when we were forming Getzspeaking.

Bob,
You will be missed by many friends. You were an inspiration to me as my mentor in Toastmasters. I will miss your smile, your jokes and your stories. I will especially miss the great friendship we had and our talks over coffee. I will always remember the laughter and the great memories...

Bob was a good friend and a dedicated Toastmaster. In the years I knew Bob, he was always willing to help spread the benefits he found in Toastmasters. He was active in building new clubs, and a good friend to those he worked with. My deepest condolences to his family and friends for their loss.
