Libby, my heart breaks for you and the boys. If I hadn't already been on a plane to see Janelle in Seattle, I would have dropped everything to be there for you. Thinking back to those many weekends, our group, all of us up on Plum Island, Bob was always up for a fun adventure, a great friend, and he will surely be missed by all who knew him. He was a very proud husband and dad and was very protective of his family. He will watch over you, Bob,and Patrick from Heaven, and I am sure it became a lot more fun place when he arrived. Much Love to you Lib, I'll be up soon. Love Joanne
