Very rarely in life do we meet people whom we can be instantly certain of their genuine kindness and honesty. Bob was that guy! What a tremendous loss for his family, friends and our world. With much love and deepest sympathy.

Bob was such an amazing man. When our dog was diagnosed with cancer, he constantly checked on us to see how we were all doing. His hugs were comforting. His love for animals was extraordinary. I'm so thankful to have known Bob, I'll sure miss his hugs. Till we meet again my friend. Love to you always.

Dear Steve Swaim and Clary Family,
My sympathy and shock to hear of Bob's sudden departure from us. The few times we met at work during our banking years in SF/Daly City, I found him a nice, kind professional guy and easy to know; I have alwasy heard from closer friends of Bob at the bank, the nicest comments/compliments about his managerial style and good nature and how much they liked him. I am sorry for your loss of this life partner, brother and uncle in your lives. God Bless Bob. Don León Meylé 11-23-13
