Not sure what to say?

It has always truly been a blessing to have the opportunity to have such a sincere and loving employer to mentor me throughout my humble beginnings in my career...From our family to yours, Malama pono ❤Im truly blessed -

I was thinking about Bob recently, even before the Legacy.com reminder came in today. I was thinking of how well he stayed in touch with friends over the years and made the extra effort to do so. I'm very thankful that we re-connected a couple of years before he passed.

I just learned that Bob had passed away back in July. I was a '64 grad and he was a '65. But we were friends up to graduation time. Dependable guy, had to be. He was my driver on double dates. Plus his mother taught French at Lee at the same time. Life moves so quickly. He was a fine fellow in HS. And reading about him now tells his expansion to greater humanitarian things. Beth(McNabb, '65) and I are so sorry that he is gone so early.

I can't help reflecting what a better world it would be if we all received the kind words that Bob has received...he was an example we should all try to emulate.

He was The best Uncle anyone could ask for. I will always love the fact he always wanted us Kids to do great, & do are best in are education and always be happy. We will always miss you and love you

Just found About Dr Macilveen! I'm so sorry about him passing away! I did work for him during my PCC dental asst. He was a real Doctor who care for his patients, not for the money, just for them to be helthy and happy with his smile! I always will remmeber him as a great person and doctor! Farthemore; as a great human been! To his family, I want the to know how much i enjoy working for him! and all the thing that he made me remember about to be a great dentist!!!!!!!

Bob was an outstanding member of our high school class in Huntsville, Alabama. He was smart, charming and fun to be around. He attended many of our high school reunions even though it was quite a long trip for him. Our reunions won't be the same without him. To his family and friends in Oregon, we, Bob's classmates, share your loss.

I was very saddened to hear of the loss of very dear friend and colleague. Bob was always available to help where ever there was a need, serving on several dental committees and helping numerous patients who were in need. He will be sorly missed. My prayers and thoughts are with Bob's family. We have lost a wonderful person.

I was a patient of Dr Bob for 28 years. He was an example of how to give back to the community and world. You are missed. I wish his family peace at this time.
