Bob, how fitting that your 1 year passing anniversary should pop up right after I submitted my Dads´ obituary. I know you are both getting up to no good together and laughing at the old times. It gives me comfort that you were one of the dear friends waiting to greet my Dad. I will always keep you in my heart.

Bob was one of my first coaches in PONY League baseball, long ago and far away, in another time. He taught us to have fun, and play the game the right way. He was also a friend of my Dad at Magnetics. Never been a better person on the face of this good Earth. RIP, my friend

We are so very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. He was the best man at my parents' wedding and I can tell you both my parents held him in high regard. I loved hearing the stories of my dad and Bob's time in the army together. Loving thoughts and prayers to all his family.
