My sympathy and prayers to Bob's family. I am so saddened by the news. Bob was one of the finest human beings I have ever known. I worked with him for years at Lambert ATCT. He helped train me so many years ago, and a nicer human being does not exist. I never heard Bob say an unkind thing about anyone, ever. He was a good listener, was able to soothe and lighten workplace conflicts, and was a friend to all. He was a philosopher at heart, and had such an intuition about, and caring for all people. He was an inspiration to me. He will be sincerely missed.
