Not sure what to say?

My condolences to Bob´s family. He hired me to work in the X-Ray Dept. at the clinic in 1988. I worked opposite Sylvia for three years. They were both such dynamic full of life people. Bob was a great boss. He was fair, honest and a great person to be around. He was so committed to this community. It was our privilege to have him here for so many years.

My sympathy to the Gervais family. I was hired by Bob to work at the Lake Chelan Clinic, which was a true pleasure for me. I will always be grateful to him.

One of my memorable moments with Bob. The Newspaper Caption "Unlikely Trio" had some truth to it, but on that day 3 former Mayors were in agreement to smile and record a special moment.

I worked with Bob at the clinic. He was a wonderful man and great to work with. I enjoyed visiting with both him and Sylvia and hope they will be together again.

My condolences to Monique & her family. I met Bob when I was hired to be Dr. Chuck James's RN team partner. The first thing I was told was not to ask for any equipment as Bob would definitely say "no". I was successful in changing that notion! Bob ran a tight ship & knew what he could do to make Lake Chelsn Clinic the best place for care of the community. We took in all patient problems including emergency situations as at the time the hospital wasn't set up to do that. I was even trusted...

I knew Bob while he attended Chelan Christian Church and from many visits to his home during the last year of his life. He shared many stories of his community involvement in Chelan and his military service.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
