Not sure what to say?

The Machabee family offers our sincere sympathy to the Pew family and the entire Steelcase family. Bob was a man of complete integrity. It has been our honer to have been associated with a man we hold in the highest regard.

Knowing and having worked with Bob has been the most treasured experience in my 50 years in this industry.
My condolences to Rob, John, and Kate.

To the Pew Family: As a 40 year employee of Steelcase, I can't tell you how much your father has meant to us all through the years. He was always looked upon with the utmost admiration. He treated all fairly and with diginity and respect, no matter your job or status in the company. He lived the Steelcase Core Values and was an inspiration to us all. May he rest in peace.

Bob was a wonderful man who taught me a lot about integrity as a new Steelcase employee 32 years ago. I will never forget his kindness and keen intelligence. We have lost an icon of business but the family has lost a father and grandfather. May you have wonderful memories and stories to tell of your times together.

Dear Kate - My deepest sympathy at the passing of your father. While your loving bond with him is eternal, I am certain you will miss his physical presence. May you find comfort in fond memories and the warmth of the love or your family and friends. Natalia M Schotte

My deepest sympathies to you and your family, Kate...xoxo
