My Husband, Spence, and I were classmates of Bob at Birmingham High School in Birmingham, Michigan. In fact, he was my marching partner during our graduation ceremonies that day. We "caught up" again during class reunion committee meetings throughout the years. Bob was always a hard worker and a gentleman whose good natured attitude helped steer us in the right direction. He will be sadly missed. Our condolences go out to his wife and his family. Beckie Perry
