To JR and family, Bob will live on in our hearts and minds forever - he's just too good a guy to ever forget. He left his mark on me, and over the past 20+ years has helped shape me into who I am now. I have lost a boss, a buddy and a mischievous playmate at the office but he's not really gone. Thanks Bob.
