Not sure what to say?

Dear Bob and Family:

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your father. My thoughts are with you.

To the Killian Family - Mr Killian was more than a customer of Arrow Pharmacy, he was part of our family, and I felt a special bond because of his relationship with my Dad when they were so very young. We have truly lost a very gentle man in the truest sense of the word. Please take good care of Moby for him. My deepest sympathy to you all, may your memories sustain you and help you through this difficult time.
Marilyn Montano and John LaBruna

Bob and Cindy - What a wonderful and loving tribute to your dad (and mom). I well remember their gracious hospitality during extended visits from Washington. I regret that I could not be there today to personally pay my respects to The Governor.

To the Killian Family,
My deepest sympathy to you all. I had the great pleasure of being Mobys dog groomer. Mr Killian was always a breath of fresh air when he came to us to take care of his baby.He always had a kind word, a big smile and always a pat on the cheek. We will miss him greatly!

My sincere condolences go to Mr. Killians family. I worked with him at Gould, Killian and Wynne and enjoyed hearing his stories of the old days. He was a wonderful man and I will miss him very much.

To Judge Killian and Cindy - We were deeply saddened when we read of your Dad's passing. We have fond memories of him while we were living on Tredeau Street. He was an honest, well-spected pillar of our State and will be greatly missed. Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sorrow.
Sincerely, Mike and Nella D'Onofrio

I read this notice with a profound sense of loss. Bob Killian was a very important person in my life personally and professionally. Indeed the entire disability community owes him for the significant effect he had on achieving our freedom to be mobile in today's world. I will always remember his integrety, unwaivering commitment, and compassion.

The Dooley & Flynn families send our deepest sympathies on Bob's passing. We hope the Killian family will remember us from White Sands Beach & Wilson Street in Hartford. I know my now deceased mother & father (John & Elizabeth Dooley) & brother Johnny & sisters Lucy & Molly thought very kindly of him, as do I. I also remember fondly, Bob's parents' newsstand on Park Street in Hartford. He will not be forgotten.

Our deepest condolences to the Killian family. We will miss talking to Bob on his strolls through our back yard with Moby and listening to his kind words of encouragement on everything from the state of our yard to managing our family and work life. His reassuring "You kids are doing great" has meant so much to us through the years. He will be greatly missed.
