The Bowers family of the Mid-Atlantic States send the warmest memories to Bob, Monica and the Schmid/Martin families.

Marge Bowers (99), Chip & Sue Bowers, Pat Bowers Thomas

As a former PVE resident, I'll always cherish the gifts of thinking taught me by Bob Martin. And I'll always remember visiting with Monica and Bob at their beach home. God bless you Bob, and your family.

To Monica, Stacy, Tara, and Brian... my heart goes out to you all. I wish you the peace and solace of sweet memories, to hold you through this painful time... With much love, Cindy Melcher
