I remember when we asked Bob to join one of the bowling teams up at Forest Hills on Wednesday nights. And one of those thursday mornings after bowling, Bob looked especially tired when he got to work at Clinton Rd, garage. First, he was questioned as to why he looked so bad, and he said, " they took the doorknobs of all the doors and I couldn't get out.". That was so funny, several of us had to keep from rolling on the floor in laughter. Going to miss you, Bob

I am sorry to hear of Bob's passing.
He was one of the finest gentlemen that I have ever known.
I had the pleasure of working with him at Illinois Bell and he was always willing to share his years of telephone/cable knowledge with others.
