Not sure what to say?

Again, I will never forget Mr. Robert Barrett, who was my first supervisor (for 15 years) - The best and kindest man with the most wonderful personality anyone could have! I loved you then Mr. Barrett, and I am so appreciative that you hired me in 1966, and that I was able to support the Most Brilliant man there was - who ran the Solid State Sciences Laboratory with Precision! Thanks again Mr. Barrett, and I will never forget you, and I will keep you in my Prayers. Most Lovingly and...

Robert Barrett was my boss at Hanscom Air Force Base, 1966-1981. He was the nicest and best boss anyone could ever dream of having. He was always happy and smilling and kind to everyone. I remember him as being extremely brilliant; he loved photography; but most of all, loved his wife, Helen and his children, who I would see come in to the office on occasion. A very good man and good husband and father! I am saddened to hear of his passing. He certainly is a Wonderful Legend, and I thank him...

Yes there are people that will miss Robert. It is sad that he only loved the children of his daughter but not others. All the grandchildren will miss him, not just a select few. Andrew and James loved him also.

I am so sorry for the loss of your loved one. Please find peace and comfort in Psalms 65:2.

Although I met and knew Bob for a short time it was a pleasure to talk with him. I am very saddened as his parting but at least he has no more pain.
