Dear Annette and Family,
We were very sorry to hear of Bob's passing. What a great inspirational leader!
Always "upbeat" about his family, Massillon , and the "Tigers". We always enjoyed talking with him and exchanging class information.
Our deepest sympathy to all of you in your loss. May God's presence surround you during this very difficult time.
Deepest Regards,
Nancy and Bob Garver -- Class of '55
