Not sure what to say?

Bob was a fascinating person. So creative and knowledgeable on so many subjects. My wife Elouise "Ouisie" Jones asked him to make two beautiful mirrors framed beautifully with bamboo from his Yucatán plantation. So glad I got to know him. My Best to his family. Harry Jones

When I met Bob he was my employer, but through the years we worked together, he was my friend, cheerleader and business partner. We had lots of fun together and even getting in and out trouble. A lot of my principals I learned from Bob and still apply to this day. I felt something was not right when I didn't get my annual Christmas card.

Laura, David & Heather, you have my condolences and your dad's spirit lives on in your hearts.

Love you all,

Bob, his sister Barbara, my sister Celia and I spent many Thanksgiving holidays at our mutual paternal grandparents' home in Brookline, MA. I treasure those memories. My condolences to the family.

Bob's gift to Carol on her birthday at Xixim

Our sincere condolences to the family. So sad.

My deepest condolences to Laura, David and Heather and all other members of the family. The few years I worked with Bob were transformative for me and unforgettable. I can still recall the way his face would light up anytime the topic of his children came up. You were the love of his life.
My thoughts, prayers and sympathy are with you.

Bob was indeed always ready for adventure and wanted everyone else to come with him. So happy that bamboo worked out for him. There are legends today about Bob in Muna and at Uxmal. He was one of a kind.

My sincere condolences for your loss.
May the God of all comfort be with the
entire family. He can provide comfort
regardless of how distressing our
situation may be. His Word reassures
us:"He is near to all those calling
upon him,...and their cry for help
he will hear." (Ps. 145:18,19)
