Not sure what to say?

A year has passed and you are still thought of and spoken about so very often x

My heartfelt sympathies and condolences to Bob's family and close friends.

I had the great pleasure of getting to know and work with Bob in the 90's at Newbridge. I will remember our spirited discussions about business fondly -- I learned a lot from Bob during our talks, and I am a better person for having known Bob.

I'll miss you, Bob. God Speed.

Sincerely,
Tim Ragan

I have had both the pleasure and the challenge of working with Bob over the past five years at EcoVu. With every aspect of the financial documentation covered, Bob could find those that were not. He made me better at work, and feel better outside of work. My last moments with Bob were walking through his back 40, him pointing out the hidding spots from which he could watch the animals. God Speed and Good Journies, Bob. We are all less without you.

Our condolences to Bob's family and close friends.

When I think of Bob, I remember one of my first trips with him to negotiate with the executives of our Russian Newbridge/MTN joint venture. There was lots of paper moving back and forth and when Bob found out how much I was paying the hotel for faxes, he pulled out his old BT lineman's kit. In no time he had taken apart the wall outlet and installed an adaptor so I could use my computer to send the documents back to Canada for free. And remember this was way before the Internet.

The world has lost an intelligent, tenacious, kind-hearted man. Bob will be dearly missed by those who had the opportunity to know him. I have wonderful memories of working (and travelling) while at Newbridge (APR) with Bob and team.

My condolences,

Nikki Harle Bohm

~ Two Wolves ~

An old Cherokee chief was teaching his grandson about life...

"A fight is going on inside me," he said to the boy. "It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

"One is evil - he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, self-doubt, and ego.

"The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy,...
