My deepest condolences to Bob's family.
My first ticketing training on Guam 1969, (TWA around the world) done my Mr. DeFonso. Bob, was a wonderful man.

I am so fortunate that I had the opportunity to work with Bobby D for a number of years at Trans World Airlines. He was my mentor, my traveling companion, my collaborator on many written procedures for TWA, ..but most of all, he was my friend. I have so many wonderful memories of our time together ... and I will miss my buddy.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
