We have a bridge in your memory, ready to go Bob having a little bit of difficulty with conservation. Anyone know anyone or want to make a donation (because they may have us do a complete environmental impact...) It is hand, cut beams from local sawmill all the best DJ

When Colgate bought Kendall I was an accounting clerk in the tiny international division. In reviewing the work of current employees, Bob discovered my work using outside computers to generate financial statements. He came to meet me.

Will be greatly missed, brother Bob.

My condolences to the family. I worked closely with Bob when I was with the Massachusetts 4-H Foundation. He was a wonderful leader as Chairman of the Trustees for many years. He played on our golf team for the annual 4-H fundraiser for several years. Lots of laughs (we came in last place). I remember him fondly. RIP Bob. Life well lived!

Bob was a smart, wonderful gentleman & a inspiration to anyone he met. Will miss him walking on the Rail Trail.

Bob was a great friend to me and my wife Carolyn! I served as a steward on the NHC board when he was president the last year and I learned so much hunt club history from him over many years. I enjoyed social events at his home and the many emails we shared on so many fronts. We shared a love of travel and good people. We will miss his great smile, firm handshake and great friendship! We will miss his friendship. Love and sympathies, Dominic and Carolyn

Is this the same Bob Macleod that served on the CRS board? My prayers are with the family.
