Not sure what to say?

Time has passed but we will never forget Bob with his humble manner, kind heart and great smile. Our thoughts are with you today, Carol. Love, Linda and Ray Simpson

So sad to hear of Bob's passing. I was class of 76 at the Academy and always admired his modesty and his kindness. He was an amazing person and I feel lucky to have known him. My condolences to the family. We have all lost a special friend.

Our sympathy is extended to Carol and the rest of the VerShure family upon the death of Bob.

To Bob´s family. I was a 1970 B´ville grad with Bob. Always such a nice person and a great athlete. I´d known him since 3rd grade. Please accept my sincerest sympathy. He was definitely one of the good ones. RIP my friend.

My sincere condolences to the VerShure family. Bob and I flew together many times at NWA and DAL. I remember him as a true gentleman, solid pilot and all around fine person. We always had plenty to chat about, be it the airline, the military or the Naval Academy (I'm Class of '73, Bob '74). We've lost a good man. Rest in peace, shipmate.

I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Bob when he was at the Naval Academy. I just discovered some letters from him during that period. I'd be happy to send them to you if you would like. Please see email address.

My condolences to Bob's friends and family. I was a classmate at USNA and a squadron mate at VP-22. I was blessed to have known him. He was a knowledgeable, talented pilot who was greatly respected by all the pilots in the squadron. He was always a pleasure to be with because of his kind nature, wry humor, and smile. We all will miss him and our prayers are with his family.

My condolences at the passing of an exceptional pilot and a good friend in a loss that came way too soon. Even when we were LTJGs learning how to fly, he exhibited a focus and dedication that was remarkable. I'd fly anytime, anyplace, in any airplane with Bob at the controls.
