RIP BOB, we spent time at APS sitting in the parking lot eating our lunches with Dennis and Jack, a start of our new jobs in the early 70's, that was a memorable time full of stories and joking around. Seems that was a big part of what people loved about you. Sorry for your loss sending love to all especially Patty, who I've known longer than Bob. Calvin and Joyce Stout
