Not sure what to say?

I fondly remember singing in the choir at the Bronxville Reformed Church and the way he would "check-in
" with me. It was lovely that he noticed me and cared as I was on much younger and wasn't really in his immediate circle.

To the family,
It is with deep regret that Jefe is no longer with us. I enjoyed working with him for the past 20 years at the Foundations. He was truly an amazing man and will be remembered for a life time. Thank you again for always making me feel welcomed. Bendicion Jefe! (God Bless Boss)

Dear Dale and family,
Hugs, love and prayers, Bob was such a great person and will be missed. Thankful for memories and photos.
Love, Joanie Vellenga Clark

Bob was truly "one of a kind" and a very generous and giving person on all levels. I enjoyed working with him through the Hearst Foundations over a 15 year period, particularly when I worked at Independent Sector. He will be missed by many people and contributed significantly to the nation and nonprofit organizations.

Dear Dale, I was so saddened to hear of your loss. He was a wonderful man, and will be missed by many. I send you my heartfelt sympathy. Corinne Greenberg

John,
Our prayers and condolences go out to you and your family at this difficult time. We know how much your father meant to you. Take comfort in knowing he is at peace.

I know Bob from the Reformed Church Choir - he will be sorely missed. He had a good life, and was a good man. Please accept my condolences.
