Alice, Emily and Family,
From the days living in Madison and on to Milwaukee, our families remained friends. Of course it all began in the State Legislature with my father, Nick Lesselyoung and Bob. I remember so much laughter: Bob had a contagious laugh. Emily: our fathers were both such "self-made men". They both served as models for an educated, Christian life while having the time of their lives!
Searching online today for 2 friends' arrangements, I spotted news of Bob's passing. I am sure you are comforted by your rich memories and a long life together. Now, it's his reward to meet his Savior.
Please accept my condolences and prayers for his restful eternal life. May God bless Bob.
Claire, Pete and Stephen Walchli

To the Marotz family
I was saddened to learn of Mr Marotz' passing. My late father, Robert T. Huber , often spoke very fondly of Mr Marotz and was one of the colleagues who joined in the singing around a piano bar in Madison during those years they served together in the Assembly. I don't doubt they are crooning a tune once again.
With sympathy for your loss,
John M. Huber
