Doris, my deepest condolences on the death of your brother, Bob. I have many fond memories of the times I spent with you snd Bob at your home on Robinson Ave when we were in our early teens. I last saw Bob, when he came through Tokyo when I was stationed there from 1976-1978. I know my parents treasured the friendship with your parents,and my mother spoke often of Bob.

We extend our deepest condolences to Doris and those who loved Mr. Hunker. We knew him through our Aunt Vess and were overjoyed at being invited to Gully Ridge and the hunt on a number of occasions. We are hoping that Vess and her beloved Bob Hunker are running around heaven together retelling their wonderful stories.
May his memory be eternal.
With love,

I worked for Bob in the early '60s. Not only was he my employer, but my good friend. My birthday won't be the same this year - he NEVER forgot to send me a card. I feel blessed to have known this creative, dynamic, and caring man. His contributions to making the world more beautiful will be his legacy. I will miss him dearly.
