Thank you all for your kind words. I didn't even know that you could put messages on this site. I just looked at it now. And, of course I remember you Carol and Mike.
Love to all of you.

Dear Bonnie and family,
You don't know me but I first met Bob in the early 80's when he represented the Teamsters and I was a rooky management negotiator. Our paths crossed many times over the years as we both moved around. Whenever we saw each other we picked up from where we left off and reminisced. I learned a great deal from Bob - about the importance of standing by your principles, keeping your word, about living your values, about integrity and trust, and that no matter what the disagreement there was never a need to be unkind. He was a man of honor. And it was my honor to have known him. You are remembered in my prayers.

Bonnie, you may not remember us, but we most certainly remember you and Bob. We were members of Central for a few years in the early-mid 90's. We are so sorry to hear of Bob's death. He had a presence that was larger than life and he truly loved Jesus...just like you. We know the Lord is with you and know that Mike and I will be praying for you and your family. God's Gentle peace to you.

Bob was member of our cable commission in White Bear Lake. He always came in to meetings with a nice smile and greeting for staff. He was so genuine and warm-hearted. His support for staff and community television was greatly appreciated and he will be very very missed. Thanks Bob for giving of yourself to us over all of the past years!
