I met Ernie and Bob at the location where I work. Ernie was a "true" gentlemen and Bob one of the "best" son-n-laws a man could wish for. Ernie could always bring smiles to my face with some of his "words of wisdom". Bob you are in our prayers. You were blessed to have had such a good friend in your father-n-law.
