Sorry to hear of this. John's mother and my mother, Virginia Hoff, were good friends and I do remember chatting with them on a visit to State College about 5 years ago.

My little buddy Bob....I will miss our friendship so much. Picking up my phone and hearing "Eileen?". You were a good man Bob and are undoubtedly singing now with the Angels....I shall never forget you! Having you in my life and helping each other, was certainly a gift. I still love you....and will pray for you always. Your friend in Prayer, Eileen
