I was extremely saddened to learn of Bobs's passing. We were classmates @ Northeastern Univ. Class of 1955. We shared many good times at NEEDS gatherings and tours in Calif. with school buddies. He will be missed by all. Fare well, Old Friend.

It's so hard to find the words to say...
I know you're hearts are breaking and that the sadness you are feeling is overwhelming. I know how much love you all shared and all the wonderful memories that you made. Keep them all close to your hearts and pull them out when you are feeling lonely. Your father knew how much you cared and he will always be near.
My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.
