I was saddened to hear of the passing of Uncle Tommy's brother, James Robert, or Rob, as my parents knew him when I was growing up in Pittsburgh. I am Michelle Lee's cousin, Sylvia Page Browne, and I remember her uncle Rob well as a very friendly and nice person. Sending prayers and sincere condolences at your loss.
