How Bob would have loved to meet darling Natalie who will be the delight of all your hearts this Christmas season. Please know we are thinking of you all & wishing you many blessings during this Advent Season. Love, Fran & Jack O´Brien

Dear Nora, Genevieve, Aubrey & Family- We were shocked to learn of Bob´s passing, as his delightful presence seemed enduring as time passed. It seems not so long ago that our daughter Nanette & Genevieve were friends at Trinity Cathedral Academy in Trenton. Then in high school they played violin & piano together. They were bridesmaids in each other´s weddings. Bob & Jack worked together in Student Assistance, NJ State. Bob was always there for us, with his charming...

I met Bob in Milwaukee Wisconsin where he and I and 37 others trained to become Peace Corps volunteers in India. The last time I saw him was at a reunion of our Peace Corps group which took place in New Hampshire. I am so sorry to hear of his death. I hope to hear from his wife.

In behalf of Bob's Wheaton College soccer teammates--including Senator Daniel Coats (goalie)--and 1963 classmates, we tender our sympathy to Bob's family. He contributed in many areas while on campus and his illustrious career does honor to all we alumni who knew him.
