Not sure what to say?

I worked for Bob when he ran the Stratford and Danbury package centers. In operations, he was one of those guys you would be in awe of. Everyone, and especially the drivers respected him. For me, his professional and unpretentious commanding (sometimes tough) presence, made a lasting impression on me. I became a better a leader because of Bob. If you were honest, took responsibility, and worked hard, he more than had your back. I wrecked my car one time and he let me borrow a truck for as...

I worked for Bob at UPS. He help me at my UPS for many years. Bob was always straight forward with his management skills. Miss you my old friend.

I worked with Bob for many years at UPS and after retirement enjoyed our monthly retirees luncheon. My sincere sympathy to his family.
