Bob, there are no words to describe how much you will be missed. Your jokes, your graciousness, and most of all your advice for everything. You'll never be forgotten. From coming to PA in 1991 to your part in our wedding to listening to your suggestions about life's curve balls. May you rest in peace now and be our angel each day moving forward. We both love and miss you!
