Dear Carol, Kathy and Robin,
To me there just wasn't anyone who could come close to the man your father was. He will be greatly missed. He was so generous, unselfish, caring and kind to everyone, and I do mean everyone, especially me. I will always remember the fun and enjoyment I had helping your father when it came time for his re-election campaigns to the house. Bob knew how much I enjoyed the world of politics and how I followed politics in the news and collected political...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I had the honor of serving with Bob in the Ohio House for 8 years, including serving on the Insurance Committee while he was Chairman. Bob was always a gentleman and kind to everyone, even those with whom he disagreed.

My family moved to West Milton as I entered sixth grade. At an event at the elementary school that year I had my first encounter with Bob and Marji as they spoke on behalf of the community about an issue of which I now have no memory.

I served in the House with him and was vice chair of the insurance committee under him. He and Marge were great people. He was always a gentleman. I learned alot about insurance from Bob. Marge and Bob shared a very special love and I was proud to be their friend. They were always there for me. You are all in my prayers for your loss.
