Another year has gone by since Bobs passing. Still think about him. Ran across a box with some old memorabilia from HS days; photos, old friends including Bob, football games, dances at teen-ville, etc. Couldnt quite get rid of It yet.
Good things to keep for awhile longer.
Hoping Bobs family is doing well.

My heart king of skipped a beat when this email came through remembering Bob on the anniversary of his passing. He was such a dear and I am still saddened just thinking about him.
My heart goes out to his wife, children and grandchildren. Be happy for the life you had with him.

He is missed already. Great discussions always lively debates. An honest man, who openly helped others. To Pat and his entire family, I'm sorry for your/our loss.

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of Bob. My deepest sympathies to the family. I am an old friend of Bob's from Sheldon. His sister's will surely remember me. Again, I am very sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathies to Pat and the family. I admired Griff very much and enjoyed working with him.

It was my privilege and pleasure to know Griff both as a colleague and as an intrepid frequent participant on our Fall mountaineering trips. I will always rember him as kind and gentle man with an abundance of humor and wit. We will all miss him. I send my deepest condolences to his family,\. I am very sorry for your loss.

I served with "Griff" in Vietnam. Great Dentist, great guy.
