Bob was such a character, he would always lighten up a room. I sat with him for dinner as often as I could to listen to his stories about flying his A 6 in Vietnam as a Marine as challenging other guys at the table about how low he would fly and other airplanes he flew like the 747. What a great guy, we all miss him in the QBs.

Bob became a good friend, having rode on my EAL jump seat many times PBI-JFK-PBI enroute to/from his trips with NWA. We became friends and he later became a client in my non-airline business.

I lost touch with Bob when he moved but Bob was always one who was a good friend, interesting and fun to be around. Our sincerest sympathies go out to Betsy and his...

Dear Betsy, My sincere condolences for your loss. I knew Bob only the last 3 years of his life and met him at the YMCA. I liked him the moment I met him. He was on the adjacent elliptical working out.
And as I got to know Bob I realized what an exceptional human being he was.
And he was a true war hero w multiple Air Medals from his Marine aviation days. He risked his life for our country. He was a great patriot.
I could tell he was a great pilot, "a natural".
He...
