Polly,
So sorry to hear the news about Bob. He was the most respected official in my playing and officiating era. Whenever I played a game, or officiated a game with Bob, I always new I had or was with one of the Best!
I'll sure miss the times at the Barber Shop and at the Fire protection garage. He had such a great sense of humor.
I'll sure miss him!!!

My wife planned a birthday family get together or I would have been to calling the hours. I am so sorry for your loss. Bob was one of finest and most respect official that I ever had the pleasure of working with. He was also a mentor to the younger officials. It's hard to deal with the loss of a loved one on a daily basis but it has to be even harder when it's your birthday. Just remember God doesn't give you any more than what you can handle.
Many memories will comfort you
...

My sincere condolence to your family. I hope that your many fond memories will comfort you and that you find encouragement from the Bible at Phillipians 4:6-7.

My Deepest Sympathy, and prayers to his wife, family and friends.
I met "Mr. Bell" as I always called him at our Fish Fry's at St. Joseph's. We teased each other unmercifully. I looked forward to seeing him every year. I could just tell he was a kind man with a gentle spirit. I shall miss him.
