I worked with Bob from 1969 until I retired in Jan 2000. Bob taught me everything I knew in Customer Service especially bookkeeping when it was done in Summit & Morristown Business Offices. Bob was an asset to Jersey Central P & L, it was a pleasure working with him, he knew and taught so much. RIP Bob
