My condolences to the Martin family. I knew Bob from the post office and had worked with him on a few occasions.
It was easy to see that Bob took his work personal. Hard working, perserving, and conscientous to a fault.

Bob will be missed by all his co-workers here at the Main Omaha Postal facility. I've known Bob for a number of years and he always displayed a very positive and upbeat attitude towards all of us. His work ethic was an example for all of us to follow, both here in the post office and during his service in the United States Air Force. My thoughts and prayers go out to all his loved ones.
