Not sure what to say?

I was looking for Bob on the internet because he is a cousin of my grandmother. I once met him in person. I´m so sorry to read about his death now.. is there any possible way to contact his wife or maybe kids or something? Maybe someone can let me know.

I met Bob in 1957 when we were stationed together at Wertheim, Germany. We were roommates and both being from Michigan had some common interests-the Detroit Red Wings for one. I lost track of Bob after our military service and would wonder at different times over the years what had become of him. On 5-4-13 I tried looking for Bob online and found his death notice. In reading the details of his family and full wonderful productive life, I was not surprise that this was the life story of...

Among us you were a pillar of strength, with wisdom to guide us, and patience to calm shattered lives. Gone, but you will live in our hearts forever. RIP

I met Dr. Schreiber through my wife about a year ago at their company's Christmas gathering. I will never forget his smile and warmth. I will cling on to them, now that he belongs to the ages. may you rest in peace.

My condolences to Mary Lu and the entire family. I wrote a short blurb explaining a little of what Dr. S meant to me and Redwood Place: http://www.lizbeck.net/2011/10/18/in-memoriam-dr-bob-schreiber/

How do we say goodbye?
You were very caring & thoughtful,
Compassionate & respectful.

Full of wisdom & always saw the good in every soul.
Neck ties & bow ties were your thing,
Your stories we will surely miss.
Redwood Place will never be the same,
We are left with treasured memories shared.

My thoughts and Prayers are with you Mary Lu and your family. Dr. Shreiber was so accepting and tolerant of everyone; if everyone were like him there would be world peace. He
'll always be a part of me, as I try to emmulate his heart, his way, and his life; I'll never forget him. Thank you Mary Lu for the gracious and fun camping trips. Love, Dawn Villa, Director of Nursing, Redwood Place

I was very lucky to have worked with Dr. Schreiber at Lincoln Child Center. As one of the school nurses on campus, I got to interact with him often and discuss each child's progress as he worked tirelessly to try and help each and every one.

His warmth, intelligence, and wry sense of humor were always present as he stopped by the nursing office in the morning to partake of our stash of Peet's coffee, "the good stuff", he liked to call it.

But what I will remember most...

I'm so sorry for your loss Mary Lu. I think of you often when dealing with crazy stylists.
