Dear Peg and Amanda,

Andrew, Julie, Philip and I were shocked to hear about Bob. Our hearts and prayers go out to you both. We all have great memories of Bob - happy, smiley memories. Amanda, you lucked out with your dad. He was so invested in you his love was palpable. Peg, you are one of the very few in this world who found and married her sole mate. He will always be there for both of you. Swimmers! Step up! He blew a mean whistle.

All our love, The Santosuosso Family
