Dear June,
I am so very sorry ot hear of Bob's passing. You and Bob welcomed me and my family to St. Aidan's as a new Navy family to Virginia Beach in 1975 where we stayed as active members until 1990 when we moved to the Roanoke VA area. Take care and God keep you in His loving arms. Peggy, Tom, Jennifer and Tommy Botteicher

Dear June,
Like so many, I was sorry to hear of Bob's passing. I enjoyed my visits with him at Marian Manor and wish that I had known him in his earlier days. You both were a blessing to me and to our residents. Keith Willyard, Chaplain, Marian Manor, Virginia Beach, VA

Dear June and family,
We are sad to hear of Bob's death. We've been at St. Aidan's 30 some years now and Bob was rector when we arrived. I will always remember he helped me find a job at the English Country Day School, a preschool at St. Aidan's year's ago. We send our condolences to you all. Love, Nancy and Ed Smith

Dear June and Family,
I am so sorry to hear that Bob has died. We met Bob on our
first Sunday in Virginia Beach in 1975. And with his strong
early leadership, St Aidans has grown to be a strong,active
and devoted parish. I send my deep condolences and wish
you God's peace in the times ahead. Serge Demchuk

Dear Mrs. Newland & Peggy,
I remember your dad on Sunday mornings at St. Aidan's as growing up in Kingston. My dad is still on Kingston Drive. I wanted to send you my prayers & that I will always remember him as such a kind and healing spirit.
Love always,
Robn Hudgins Horne

My Dad worked for Bob at Procter and Gamble in Portsmouth. He liked Bob very much. I remember him from the early 60's at the P&G picnics. He was always a kid friendly guy. Dad always admired him for heeding the call to ordained ministry. Sympathy and prayers to his family.
