Andrea and I send the entire Krezel family our deepest condolences and prayers for your loss. Bob was a most influential person in many people’s lives, including our own. He was a valued mentor to both of us at work, and an even more valued role model in life. He was a man of strong faith, and his commitment to his faith in participating in the lector ministry, among others, inspired us to do the same. Also, Bob and Frances’s marriage has also served as a strong role model for our...

Our sympathy and empathy are with all Bob's family. I miss already the greetings he always sent us on our birthdays and at Christmas. Bob was always kind, even as children he was sweet to us, his little cousins. God keep him safe, and close, and I know Bob's smiling at us all from Heaven.

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family, Lori. I know your cherished father will be dearly missed.

I am devastated to hear of Bob's passing. Bob and I were in S Squadron together at Virginia Tech in the Corps of Cadets and graduated in 1968. He was in the class one year ahead of me, but the coop program required five years to graduate putting us in the same graduating class. In our senior year my previous roommate contracted mono requiring him to sit out the fall quarter putting Bob and me together as roommates for the last three quarters of our time at Virginia Tech. Bob was...

Frances, I offer my you and your extended Family and Friends my condolences at the time of great loss. May Peace be with you. I have many fond memories of Bob from our years of work at Saint Paul's and the Schools. He was a wonderful man. May he rest in Peace.

Bob was a good friend and colleague at UERD. He was extremely smart, patient, friendly, dedicated to family, and dedicated to his UERD family. His work accomplishments are very significant related to naval vessels. Bob’s insight and strategic insight was critical to the successful relocation of UERD from Portsmouth to NSWC Carderock, West Bethesda, MD. Without his expertise based on years of experience, the UERD move would not have been successful. His friendship will be cherished forever....

I mainly remember Bob from high school, a couple years behind my class of '61. I am impressed to learn of his great contributions to the Navy command where he worked for many years. My condolences go out to the entire Krezel and Blasio families who will miss him so much. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

My sincere sympathy to Bob's family. May the Angels & Saints greet him and usher him into paradise.

Deepest Sympathy to the family.
