Not sure what to say?

My family (the Morton's: Tom, Lil, Tommy, and Mary Helen) were members of the First Presbyterian Church of Inglewood and knew the Sinclairs very well; my Dad and I were in the Indian Guides with Bob and his son in the late fifties early sixties. Wonderful memories of the Sinclair family..........Tom Morton ([email protected])

You will be remembered forever Bob, Patsi too!

Bob & Patsy were friends for many, many years. He was a wonderful Rotarian. His Christmas letter and photos were special. Years ago, he told me about bringing his ship aboard my ship for repairs on Nov. the 20th. 1944. We had many memories together about that time of our lives. We will miss him!

Bob and Patsy were the heart and soul of our steel makers' and suppliers' community in So.Calif.
He was a true gentleman, and everyone who came to know him, loved him.
He loved to take photograghs and slides of everyone that he met at various gatherings, and gladly showed them and shared with them. We will never forget his continuously running 'Slide Show'on Sunday mornings of all the previous events of AIME Summer Golf Outings at 'Singing Hills' for 40+ years. We were blessed to...

Uncle Bob will be missed in the East as well! I always looked forward to his letters and visits from he and Aunt Patsy to keep up on the goings on of my California Cousins

Bob was the true gentleman of the Southern California ceramic community. What a great guy!

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

I will miss Bob as well as we all did Patsy. As an Alfred U grad moving to Ca in 1971 to UCLA for grad school he adopted us as surrogate Daughter and son. He was so devoted to AU, reunions here which I took over, fishing in Baja for tuna with my real Dad and befriended them my Mom when the moved here and both took golfing trips together to Scotland. He was the best salesman for ceramics as I was a customer and best person that I have known and his passing being peaceful is a blessing.

Sorry to hear about your Dad's passing, Bob. Please keep me informed of the life celebration details in June. And, of course, if there is anything I can say or do to support you and the family in this transition time, call or email (all the same)....Best...Tom Burton
