Robert Sherill Welfare

With Bob's passing our "Piedmont Family" becomes a little smaller, but it also re-kindles fond memories of a man who helped build that "Family" and made you proud to be a part of it. He will truly be missed and not forgotten.
My sympathy and prayers to you and your family.

Sue,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Bob. I had the pleasure of working with Bob for a number of years prior to the merger. He will always be a part of my fond Piedmont memories. Every pilot has a "Bob Welfare Story." He touched many lives. Bob was one of our best! My deepest sympathy to the family.

Sue, please know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers at this time.

I was now based in ROA and had taken a Martin 404 ferry trip to INT. I was hoping to be based back in ORF. (My home town) I was told to see "Welfare" for my request. I didn't realize that Piedmont had such a thing. I entered the Welfare department and ask the Gentleman on the other...
