Robert W. Kummer Jr.

Can't believe it's been a year! Not a first Wednesday in the month goes by when I don't think fondly of Bob. We played a lot of golf together. He was a first class gentleman and will always be missed.

Mrs. Kummer:

I just read of Bob's passing and I wanted to tell you what a class person Mr. Kummer was to the Birnam Wood employees during my time there as F&B Director. We all admired and respected him as a leader and as a member you could relate to. God bless your family during this time of grief.

I was very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I was most fortunate to work for Bob at Union Bank and than at 1st Business Bank for many years, and to look to Bob as a mentor and a friend. When we were involved in arranging for the adoption of several children, Bob was generous and provided a very strong reference. With a high degree of frequency even though Bob was so busy with business and other matters, he always found time to inquire about our children. In fact Bob set me up with...

Barbara, I was saddened to learn of Bob's passing. I shall cherish the times we worked together to make Woodbury better. One of his legacies is making Woodbury a better and financially stronger place. It's a little hard to image a Woodbury without his counsel.

We just heard. We are stunned and very saddened of Bob's passing.
Bob was very considerate and loving to us while we're living at Birnam Wood. We always admired and looked up to Bob and Barbara for all of their amazing accomplishments and how they treated everyone. He was a terrific Club President. And lead Birnam Wood to to new heights. He will be very much missed.
Our deepest feelings and condolences to Barbara and the family. May you be Blessed forever.

It was an honor having known and worked for Bob Kummer. I learned from Bob an incredible focus on detail. He created a fun environment where everyone loved to work and be challenged. On my first real marketing success, Bob said to have an amazing dinner with my girl friend on the Bank to celebrate. I proposed to her that night almost 30 years ago on Bob's expense. He was at the wedding of course. He will be missed!

I am saddened to hear of Bob's passing. Bob was a mentor to many young bankers including myself. That mentoring lead to many successful banking careers. He will be missed but never forgotten!!!

Played many a round with Bob
He was a good man, a good banker, and a great golf companion.
Barbara,
I will remember him and you in my prayers.

I was so sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I have fond memories of my time working for him at 1st BB from 1981 to mid-90s. My thoughts are with you, Barb, and your family. May you all find comfort with each other.
