Not sure what to say?





I worked with Bob at ORD back in the mid 70's in C & C. Bob was kind of intimidating to a young man like me when I first met him, but once I got to know Bob I loved working with him. He knew his stuff and I learned a lot while working with him. As long as you did your job the right way, Bob always had your back. Thank You Bob. May you R.I.P.

Bob for a short period was also responsible for the Fueling Department when Ron Timmons left and I got to know Bob fairly well then because I was the lead. Bob was always tough but everyone always respected him because he was fair. He was a true Delta Pro.

One of the first people I met when I hired on in Chicago for Delta. Firm but fair. May he find eternal love in the hands of our Lord

I knew a Bob from the time we both were at ORD. I was in MTC while Bob wore many hats in operations. When my wife came down with cancer 3 years ago he sent a get well email to us which was very much appreciated.
Rest In Peace Bob.
